Run them tubeless.Get a good wheel, like aero or bassett. Bassett has an extreme bead wheel that holds the tire on real good. You almost have to cut the tire off to dismount.There are other tricks to hold the tire on like weatherstrip adhesive welding a taller bead on the wheel and rim screws if allowed.Guys used to put vineager or battery acid on the bead (bare metal) to make the wheel rust and stick the tire.Using a wheel with the wide lip out helps also.
