Do you need tubes to pin slick's to the rims?

You mean rim screws....no you dont need tubes....but before you mount slicks buy 2 bottles of joy dishwashing soap and a sponge and doosh the entire inside of both slicks with 1 bottle each....predrill all your holes on the rims first, then mount and balance the slicks..I guarentee you these slicks will never leak if this is done properly..........If you use tubes make sure you put plenty of baby powder in them before you seal and air up the slicks..........:wave:

The tires are allready mounted on the rims. A speed shop down the road from me will screw them both for 25$. Oh well i'll have them do it and hopefully they wont leak. Thanks bad00

If the slicks start leaking on you bad, you can also get a syringe and inject the dishwashing liquid down the schrader valve and spin tire over cuple of times and youll be set....:beers:
