Vic,

The stock rims hold a tight bead with tubeless radials.  I have stock rims with 
tubeless radial tires without a tire tube installed and it works just fine.

  I was under the impression that the tubes were required due to the tire 
construction.
I understand that you need them for spoke wheels,but will the tire bead
seat 
on the stock steel rim and form an air-tight seal ? I believe this is the issue.

Chime in, please.
