Huh?

Hey chucky, took the liberty of fixing your post. What do you think?

I don't get it..... But it seems like a weird thing to do, considering none of that is true and none of that is what I wrote...but, hey, if that's what you want to do, that's cool, I guess.

I made the mistake of buying some latex tubes for my bicycle one time; they were three times more expensive than butyl tubes and the valve stem tore out in a fairly short period of time. Never again.

I tried urethane tubes once, with similar results.

Went with IRC Heavy Duty tubes as recommended by AMT this time. About $20 for a set.

Do you need tubes? On my GS 550 with cast wheels I mounted the tires without tubes and they have held air for 5 months no problems. Am I missing something?

I guess you're good. My rims aren't stamped "tubeless" so I run with them.
