It would be best to, they protect your hub from damage and prevent your spokes snapping.

Hub guards are cheaper than hubs.

You don't have to.......been grinding for years without them and never break spokes....... But if your a sloppy grinder they might be worth it atleast till you smooth your grinds out

I'm sure everyone will miss at least a quarter or half of all their grinds in their biking life.

I wouldn't say that many once you know what you are doing.

But even so, I never had hub guards when I started and seriously never broke a spoke. Granted they were on frames with dropouts that were large and blocked the hubshell so that helped.
