Tom,
I did some research on this a while back and found that many companies are recommending and selling of course, 100% nitrogen to fill tires. The supposed benefits are reduced moisture and less pressure fluctuation with the phase of the moon. However, it was my opinion that 100% nitrogen would have a greater delta in osmotic differential, and instead I searched high and low until I found some 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen, and 1% argon to fill the tires. So far, it has served me well.
