Cool Nitrogen in Tyres, wind noise on the LHS

Hope for more tips and added knowledge, friends.

1) Does nitrogen in the Tyres improve longevity of tyres and reduce noise as the tyres people claim? Or is it hogwash?

After 10,500 km clocked, the front tyres are almost due for change already.
What kind of tyres will last longer?

2) At 110 km/hour, audible wind noise can be heard coming from the left (passenger side) but none on the right. It seems to be from above the left door, or the rails on top, but on inspection, I can see nothing to incriminate.
After diagonally switching the tyres suggested by the dealer, the wind noise is still there. I'm perplexed!
