I love the sales pitch for Nitrogen filled tires: It's what NASCA, F1 and airplanes fill their tire with! The reason those organization fill with nitrogen is two fold. Yes nitrogen is more stabile and consistent than air and secondly - more importantly - when the tire catches on fire, the nitrogen doesn't feed the fire like straight air would.
So the primary reason is safety.
