Default Sealing a 60 spoke wide tyre wheel?

Hey guys,

I'm running an 18x8.5 60 spoke on the back of my rocker. The wheel was supposed to be tubeless but when I got the tyre put on it leaked like a sieve.
I'm running a tube as a short term fix but does anyone have any recommendations for sealing it up to run tubeless?

Thanks,

MAtt.

Matt, are you in Sidney Oz?! If so where did you get your wheel? Your first port of call should be the manufacturer or dealer. I have to be frank I wouldn't trust any wire wheel to be 'sealed' for tubeless tyres, unless they use a system similar to BMW (spokes in the edges of the rim, outside the beads).
