Deep Six Fuchs safe with tubeless tires ?

Hi. Are Fuchs Deep Sixes safe for use with tubeless tires?. They are without the lip at the rim edge that's supposed to keep the tire from slipping out at high speed. Do most users still fit tubeless tyres to deep sixes? Many thanks, Billy

I have deep 6's on my 911, the issue with them in running tubeless is getting the valve stem to seat properly due to location on the curved inner portion of the rim.
I have had my tires on them for over 2 years and no problems so far.
Recommendation from local service shop was to put tubes in them.
