Why are gases used in car tires?
There's moisture in air. When you fill your tires with compressed air, the moisture goes in the tire too. Moisture then has potential to rust out the rim from the inside.

Why gas is used to fill car tyres?
Nitrogen gas is used (a machine is used to convert air into nitrogen gas). It improves tire wear & gas mileage by reducing tire temperature. Normal compressed air also contains moisture, which is not good for rubber let alone tires. For more information, please contact your local tire center or auto dealer.
Is it advisable to fill up car tires with nitrogen gas?
there is considerable debate about this, it is used in race car tires because the pressure is more constant from cold to hot. In theory you get better gas mileage because of this. I use it in my drag car and after a burnout the pressure doesn't rise like air when hot. The reason for this is that nitrogen has no moisture in it, the moisture content in compressed air expands and contracts at a big rate in relation to heat or the lack of.
