The only reason to use Nitrogen is safety...
That is to have a non flamable compressed gas...
AKA tyres on a Boeing 747. (40,000ft altitude, peoples lives are at stake etc)
Stories about it not changing pressure at temp etc compared to air is just plain B/S.
Fact - Nitrogen is not exempt from Boyles law.
Now this remains true, whether you chose to believe it of not
I do think there is a place for it in aviation & racing,
But only with multi piece rims.
(Possible/probable use of petrolum jelly on the main o-ring)
