Sorry, the ideal gas law still applies and you will still see approximately 1PSI change in pressure for every 10F change in temperature regardless of whether you have 100% nitrogen or air (which, BTW, is 78% nitrogen).

In over 60 years of driving, I have never had a flat tire other than rocky dirt roads back home in Kansas before I left home. I do have to seasonally adjust for temperature changes, but after switching to Nitrogen, that is a minumum effort.
