A qtp with a tube is still lighter than a drag radial. In a heavy hi-powerd car with a small tire, the tube will help the sidewall live longer.

I've never run tubes untill I got these QTPs that were already mounted on my wheels. I like tubes only because I don't need to fill the tire up every few days.

I run 28x9 hoosiers without tubes, might be adding some in the future so I can lower the pressure a bit more.. Dont like to drop mine below 15 w/o tubes, if I go to tubes I think I could run 12 or 13 and not worry...

What are you putting in there, tractor tubes?

How much do tubes usually weigh? (I honestly have no idea). The Hoosier DRs are only 2lbs more per tire than the QTPs (275/60/15 DRs = 24lbs --- 28/11.5/15 QTPs = 22lbs) Not trying to start anything just wondering.
