Even if you eventually want full lvl 11 walls, the only time to not upgrade when maxed is th9. Its only once you reach th10 that it becomes noticeably harder to do walls

if you seriously get bottle necked by your walls and remain with free builders often, then I'd say not worth it, do walls help or not? I'm a max TH8, got all the skulls for quite a while now, have they helped me more than lv7 walls did? nope not even a small difference noticeable to me, they still break with 2 wall breakers, and I often raid other TH8s with skull walls and my troops melt through them like butter, walls lv9 + help yes, but lots of people use air raids, making walls 100% useless in that category, as for whether you need to max your walls at each TH, I'll just copy everyone else and follow the mainstream crowd saying "YES" because every TH10 that upgraded from TH9 without lava walls are totally getting screwed on defense that they quit playing, totally, totally, honestly speaking a TH10 with lv2 walls and max TH10 defenses is stronger than a max TH9 with lava walls, because they have more defenses and infernos and what not, there's a TH10 guy with lv2 walls and maxed defenses in U.N clan and he sure as hell wins defenses in champs a lot more than TH9s up there (most TH9s have better walls than lv2, but obviously that's an extreme example, don't do that, but the guy is there:http://s8.postimg.org/qs5sne9ph/Scre...7_06_19_05.png
walls aren't really all as important as people say, of course they do help A LOT on defense, but unless you are working on your level 10 walls I'd say your walls aren't gonna help, I'm TH8 and I 2 star max TH9 bases with lego walls multiple times, (am I lying? naa check this thread and see for yourself: http://forum.supercell.net/showthrea...-comp-gowivape , check my channel too for more proof if you want) but that's just like my entire life story on why walls don't need to be maxed at each town hall :)
Bottom line is that it is your base and yours alone. Best advice I give people is that its your base and you have to live with the benefits and consequences of your actions. Nobody else has to deal with your base. They can give all the advice in the world but yor left with the decisions and results of them.
Another piece of advice I give is that walls dont hit back! Lol. Only thing killed by walls are wallbreakers and they mainly do it to themselves. Walls just a deterant to try and make people wanna skip your base when farming and/or slow down an attack as it happens. I dont like to attack high level walls when farming because I dont bring wallbreakers with me usually. Mainly I barch with heroes and no spells. People that attack without wallbreakers will have harder time getting through your base. So yes higher walls are beneficial. As stated before, I believe, level 6-8 walls all take same amount of wall breakers to bust through depending on level of wall breakers used. Level 9 is where it changes for the most part.
Me personally... I am max TH9 offense/defense except for small bombs. I plan to finish my walls to level 8 and then grind to get level 9 walls as I work on my heroes. I just want to take some time to level the heroes more before going to TH10. Just make things easier to do when I get there and less to do at same time. There will be alot of stuff to upgrade at TH10 that will require all my builders being used. Before TH9 I never upgraded walls to max level since I believe I was a TH5 or so. Lol
I believe TH9 is the last TH to give out extra walls also. So another reason to build mine up since I wont get anymore at TH10. Lot of talk of loot penalty and it is true but that a whole other topic. Air attacks and hog riders not bother by walls but also depends what league your in also that people use those to attack with. And how many people here giving advice have shown you what their base looks like. One thing to give advice and another to be following the advice your giving.
Hope this helps!

I'm a mid TH9, and I couldn't emphasize more on the need to upgrade your walls to your max TH level. Comparing to my friends who rushed without maxing their walls at TH8, I get raided less and lost much fewer resources compared to them (and we are in the same league). That visual intimidation helps a lot to deter raiders from attacking your base.
It takes a much longer time to get to your defenses if you have good walls. Definitely worth it.
If you are aiming long term and want to max everything it is much more efficient to max out at a town hall then upgrade. This depends on lots of factors and mostly tolerance. But I would highly recommend it.
It depends on the time you are willing to put into this game. Get as much walls as you can before your defenses are maxed and you have idle builders. The best walls in the game in terms of cost benefit are lego walls.
Yes walls are worth it, however you need to find your own balance and decide how much effort you are willing to put in.
Thanks for all the replys guys. I plan on playing long term, so i guess i will max walls for th 8. Especially because theres problems with loot at th 9 and th 10. Im having loot problems myself :mad:.
I think it's really worth to max walls before upgrading to the next th. It also makes your base looks intimidating for attackers.
