Some / most  akront rims will be ok with a a tubeless Mitch, ime.

Good to know. I had a TY175 and OEM Yamaha rim would not keep a tubless Michelin bead on. I assumed all tube type rims were the same.

If your still using a tube with the tubeless tyre, trimming the bead with a Stanley knife to a profile similar to a tube type tyre will also work. Do this at your own risk.
