Use of modern tubeless-specific tires can present obstacles to the use of Nuetech Tubliss beadlocks. Here are a few observations which may help other folks contemplating the attempt. Tires designed for use without tubes are usually designed to be a tighter fit on the beadseat than tube-type (TT) tires. The effect first noticed is that the tires are _very_ difficult to install, made worse by the Tubliss insert's somewhat greater bulk in the drop center. Care in lubrication is key. Nuetech suggests use of Armor-all or equivalent tire dressing to lube the liner and bladder. I would suggest also lubing the inner surface of the tire but _not_ the surfaces which contact the rim. This aids pushing the rim into the tire and helps the Tubliss insert "float" into a good (stable) position between the sidewalls. I'd lube the rim and tire surfaces which rest against the rim with liquid dish detergent. The detergent can be washed away to help the bead stay seated during subsequent resets, when both tire and bladder need to be deflated. Armor-all is hard to remove, so I'd keep it off surfaces that touch the rim. It helps greatly if the tire and wheel are hot during installation. Ideally, a little too hot to touch without gloves. One virtue of Armor-all is that it will stay put and slick on a hot tire. Water-based lube evaporates fast and cools things off, not helpful at this stage Once the tire is on the rim, it's apt to be at least partly unseated somewhere around the perimeter. First job is to seat the bead and make it stay put. This too is best done hot, 125 psi in the bladder and whatever it takes in the tire, even if it's leaking. My tires took over 60 psi to get an initial seat. Tighten the rim lock (11-15 ft-lbs). Once the tire is seated cool the wheel with water and slowly vent the bladder. Next remove both valve stems and watch. Most likely, the tire will de-bead. Use a hose nozzle to flush the soap lube out of the unseated areas. Next, warm it back up and reinflate to reseat the bead. Repeat the cycle until the bead stays seated; if it won't, consider using a tube. Time, repetition and thermal cycling are about the only tools available. Adjusting the rimlock nut would be a last resort, but if you get to that stage, why not? Once the bead will stay seated with zero air pressure inside, set the pressures to reasonable working values and leak test. Bubble testing will reveal the big leaks, but a few psi per day or less will be very difficult to see. Dunk testing, even if it's in a trough that submerges only a few spokes per step, is much easier and more persuasive than squirting soapy water. It can take a while for air to find its way out of the rim, so haste is ill-rewarded. A couple psi per day is rideable if you carry a pump and the tire will stay put when deflated. I'd avoid deflating the bladder outside the shop.
