If they are et streets then i do not believe so. The actual slicks its a good idea. I have seen peeps run without tubes in slicks aswell.

on mt et streets you don't. It is, however suggested if you're actually going to use them for street use.

without tubes, air pressure leaks down gradually.

its all up to you, I personally have run them either way but notice a big difference in stability with the tubes on the high end!
