Summuit racings site says you have to have tubes with these tires, but a number of people have told me they run their ET Drags tubeless. Do most people run tubed or tubeless? Are there any extra safty concerns with going tubeless with the ET Drags? What are the advantages of running with a tube or with out one. Thanks.

Most of the guys that I know run them tubeless. Myself , MMiller, Raughhammer,Steve350 and many others. I guess they recommend tubes as they have a tendency to leak down slowly and tubes would eliminate that.I monitor my air pressure often enough that I am not bothered by their air pressure concerns. If there are any other valid reasons , I would like to know also.Take care.

Tubeless here! I do however run rims screws to prevent the tire from spinning on the rim.

Thanks guys. Thats exactly what I wanted to know. Can't argue with those names that are running tubeless. Tubeless it will be.

My ET Drags came in yesterday (left in the rain by UPS man <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" /> I hate getting water out of tires)

I plan on running tubeless... That is, unless one of them gets punctured. Then it's time for tubes...

I know GeorgeC has posted that he runs tubeless at 15 psi (I searched the archives)...

I also run my ET-Drags tubeless. and I also have rim screws in there so I don't spin the tire on the wheel during my hard 1.6 launchs <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

I run my 26-8.5x15 ET Drags mounted on Centerline Convo-Pro's tubeless. ('02 A4 SS w/a few bolt-ons). Absolutely no problems on top end, etc. Also, no sidewall screws... WJ. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

I run my ET Drags tubeless. I've only put a dozen passes on them, but no problems yet.
