Thats because N2 molecules are larger that O2 molecules. So, wait for it, over time more O2 leaks out than N2 and eventually I'll have all N2 in my tires as I fill it with regular air. And thats my story and I'm sticking to it!

Actually nitrogen's molecular weight is less than oxygen, 28 vs 32. That said, oxygen is extremely corrosive. That is where the term oxidation comes from. So, in theory the lack of oxygen in the inside of the tires may have some benefit however, I doubt it overrides the external oxidation or wear of the tire. I would think the tires will wear out long before the small amount of oxygen inside would make any appreciable difference. The inside of the rims may get some advantage but, I don't recall any instances were the internal oxidation, of a modern alloy rim, was an issue.
