If you don't run tubes at least one or more of your DDS wheels may need air (now or later) before you take it out every time.
Run tubes and then you won't have to be concerned with vintage rims that can leak down.
Worst case you don't run tubes and then you might have to risk damage to your rims with dismounting a tire a few times trying to reseal a rim.

Yeah if you're not dropping the pressure for track use then use tubes.....if you run tubes with low psi at the strip the tubes can spin around inside the tyre!! Happened to me years ago with some Porsche rims  Roll Eyes

With the low pressure you might find it was the tyre spinning around on the rim, dragging the tube with it and pulling the valve out of the tube.
End result was probably the same though!

Run tubes and you'll never have to worry about having to check your tire pressure every time you want to take your car out, or when you go for long drives or trips, or when you store your car for winter. Tubeless tires was not a progress at all  Grin
