I think most people running tubeless are using non-UST tyres these days tbh. Some of mine are tubeless ready (TLR), others are just standard, all have worked fine. Some take a while to seal- standard Rubber Queens foamed away for weeks on rides- but most just seal straight up, and once on they're fine.

Not all tyres work well though... Panaracer have a rep for being too slack to work well frinstance. All my Maxxi and Kendas have been spot on though.

I found the well on UST rims made inflation far harder than on a non-UST rim. You may find the same - filling the well with some draught excluder did the job!
