I interited some wheels which were the old rangie steels with tyres fitted up tubeless.
They were a major PITA. Because they weren't used often the pressures would drop and then they would unseat themselves.
I still have those wheels (now fitted with bald BFG A/T's) fitted up tubeless, but only for storage reasons. The tyres aren't road-legal.

Back in my amateur rallying days when rims didn't have safety beads, no-one ran tubeless because the tyres were always being pushed off the rim enough to get dirt and other rubbish between the tyre and rim. Tubeless would have gone flat immediately and likely to cause a roll-over, not that roll-overs didn't occur for other reasons such as turning sharply regardless of speed or sipping coffee at the wrong time.

SupporterWell its about a hundred years later but a follow up to my tubed tyre isues.
The local tyre place that fitted the BFG's originaly, came to the party and
supplied Dynamic wheels and fitted the tyres for $115 per corner.
7000km's later and all seems good, although fingers are still crossed.
Cheers
