Americans love to dry hop every damn thing.  I say no, don't bother.  Style doesn't require it.  Save a step.  But go ahead and do it if you're a hophead.  No matter to me.

Weigh out need vs risk vs reward. You say you like them as is, then risk oxidation to probably lose the aroma due to age anyway, leaving you with what you started with at best... oxidation at worst.
