In the past, there were perennial threads for using tubeless tires on old rims. The two problems were possible leakage at spokes or rivets AND the possibility of a blow out at high force cornering. Later rims have a bead rolled in just inside of the outer bead to deter this type of event. Has anyone tried to replicate that bead by putting a bead of MIG or similar weld there? Doesn't seem like it would be too hard to do?
