I used to run "tire shop" tubes in my slicks years ago...Never had any problems...
Well heck, he should be, what with owning a 2wd. All the power to you, Tyler!
I'd run tubes in those slicks if it were me.

Thanks Guys, I guessing the reason for a tube is so they will stay up for a longer period of time? Im will be mounting these on stock PYO's with rim screws. Got the power just need to put it to the ground
i never ran tubes in any of the cars/trucks i ran slicks on. I used to coat the inside of the tire with soap and it would help them from leaking down. I even ran rim screws like this.
I don't run tubes in my M&H DR's, but I have been thinking about it for the front's. @ 45lb (Says 35lb max.) they are still not correct. I think the tube would give me the contact patch needed. The rears are fine, Only problem is I try and rotate them each race.

Ya that's what my uncle told me to do is coat them with green dish washing soap thats what we always do with his dragster slicks. tubes prob add alittle weight to. idk we will see
i never ran tubes because its hard to get them perfect. I always get wrinkles with the tubes. Plus ive seen people rip out the valve stems from the tire spinning on the wheels at launch since they werent running rim screws.

I ordered Mickey Thompson tubes to get a good quality tube. The slicks have spun on the rims (right after they were mounted - have not done it yet this year) that is why I am wanting beadlocks.

Thanks for the heads up on the CWI beadlocks. I live close to MRT who manufactures a lot of rock crawler & dirt track beadlocks. I just need to quit procrastinating and go over and see what they have.
Just as a FYI, I ran tubes in my '55 Chevy (3600 LBS.) awhile back and 60' times improved...I used rim screws to hold the slicks in place, baby powder with the install helped 'em get happy...We use beadlocks now with our car, but several guys go 180+ with rim screws only (2400 LBS.), don't know if they use tubes...
I will be running rim screws. I im going to go out and see what tire pressure these M&H's like, what do yall think a good psi to start with?
