they are budget rims (came standard on my cube) and aren't tubeless compatible. You'd have to use a conversion kit like Stans no tubes to get them to work, as you would with most rims which arent tubeless compatible.

And the kit aint cheap

any mtb rim is tubeless compatible in theory, just use an old valve and gaffer and electrical tape, if the tyre is really slack you may need to use more layers of tape or use a tighter fitting tyre.I have used this system with various different tyre rim combos for a few years now without any issues with home made sealant, a compressor make things easier especially with looser tyres
