Nitrogen is used in aircraft tires because it is inert. It does not expand when when the aircraft climbs to altitude therefore preventing tire explosions..
It does not expand or contract with airtemp change either. (Very little) This is why it is nice to use in car tires. But if you check the pressure once a month there is no need for the the added expense.
Hope that helps..
