At speed the unsealed caps have been known to leak

Totally agree with this point, learned the hard way running drag slicks at 130! At least I didn't wreck, but it was close. Sealed caps are a must and steel stems are well worth the investment. Also check your pressures regularily, even if it just saves tire wear it's worth it. ;)
