When they put nitrogen in your tires, do they suck out all the air in there when they put the tire on? NO! so, they are still mixing nitrogen with oxygen anyway. The only real benefit you will ever noticeably gain is that nitrogen expands at a predictable rate where as oxygen, not as predictable. Race teams use nitrogen because the truck they drive up in uses nirogen to power their tools, so the nitrogen is already there and they save weight in the truck only needing 1 tank instead of 2 tanks and an air compressor.
Yeah, nitrogen has bigger molecules so your tires will loose pressure more slowly than with regular air, but honestly, how often do you need to air up your tires if there aren't any leaks? Almost NEVER!

Shows how much that 30k edju-mah-kation taught your a**.
Every Nitro machine we have at work (11 dealers total at our auto mall each with their own) has this fancy purge button. Want to take a guess at what it does?
Oh, It just purges all the air out of the tire.
You sir, Are a dumb a**.
