You might want to install a filter but you certainly don't need to. The fact that they came without oil filters as standard equipment when new would indicate that with a good clean engine and regular oil changes, you should expect good engine life without a filter. You should consider changing your oil annually regardless of mileage. And of course make sure you're starting out with a clean oil pan.
