Tubes in Slicks

I would suggest no tubes,i run hoosier tires 14x32 and never had any air pressure loss,also getting a flat with tubes just about eliminates you from making next rd. ,unless you have a complete rim and tire for a spare.;/.much easier to repair a tubeless tire lol.

This^^^

Further, I have made ~ 5000 passes over the past 23 years, not one was with tubes and they never lose air pressure from round to round or week to week.

Oh and my current ride, a former super stocker, 60 foots high 1 teens, weighs 3144 lbs. and rolls on Hoosier 32/13.5 tires on 14" wheels.
