Yea, If nitrogen does not expand with temperature, why doesn?t nitrogen conform to the gas law pv=nrt? Is nitrogen an insulator?
Also - if nitrogen is useful because rubber is less permeable to it, wouldn?t repeatedly filling your low tire (after the 20% non-nitrogen leaked out) eventually drive the % nitrogen up to nearly 100% - predicting the rate of pressure drop for your tires (with air) will soon match nitrogen filled?
