The main thing I disagree with BenR is that nitrogen weighs less. The air in tires weighes very little. Air is 21% oxygen, 79% nitrogen, and less than 1% carbon monoxide, argon, pollution, etc.
Oxygen has a molecular weight of 16 and nitrogen 14 (if I remember my chemistry which I took in the last century). So the difference in weight would be less than 1 oz.
Nitrogen usually does have a little bit less moisture in it but tire rot on the inside is usually not a problem.
