oh the tubes are just for the et streets/drags, not your dr's. searching the forums it shows that most people don't bother w/ the tubes, so :shrug:. you can get those tires (bfg dr's in 274/40) 160 shipped from tires.com :)

This is new to me. Wonder why? Before I call them, someone enlighten me.
Mine have never leaked. After I get 'a little more power' I plan to screw them on to the rims.

Supposedly, they loose air after a while:shrug: I don't think it really matters. You can always rub a little bit of dish soap around the inside, but since your not leaking no worries

Wonder why?

The tubes are recommended in case you spin the tire on the rim. With the tubes you won't end up with a sudden and complete loss of air in the tire. Most people run enough pressure in their ET streets that this isn't a concern. If you plan on runnin 5 psi in ET Drags you better have tubes!

Holey moley --- 14 psi scares me
12 psi terrifies me

I think I am ok... Dean, any safety in putting in some small holes in the Diamond Racing wheels and a couple of screws?
