Default 15in M/Ts, 6 speed and no tubes

Simple Question...Am I asking for trouble or is it tolerable? to run M/T ETs without tubes. Right now im running 15in QTPs and they are fine untill i drop the pressure down less then 13psi. Im switching from a 26in tire to a 28 to help put with the spray off the line and if i dont net better times then im not going to mess with the M/Ts, so i dont want to waste another 100 bucks on tubes..

no one runs tubes... i have 28" hoosier drags on my bogarts and i just put them on and bolt them down. (wheels are drilled so i used short screws so they wouldnt go all the way through

so you could run M/T ET Street Tires #3792 with no tubes???? If this is true you guys have made my flippin day!!!
Which would be better to run though for a C5 6speed these #3792 Streets or #3793R Street radials??? I mean, which is a bit better for driveline components lol
