DT Spokes

The short answer is no you don't need the washers, unless you have old
DT spokes.
The long answer is here:

There was a thread a year or two ago about DT lengthening the bends of
its spokes to accomodate Hugi hubs. It was suggested that washers be
used for proper fit on other hubs with standard flange thickness. Is
this still the case, or has DT gone back to standard length for the
bend?

Thanks.

They have but if you see a long shaft spoke or using a hub with big
holes or reused holes, use the washers, they are good..
