The only thing I have run tubeless on so far is my 2.8" mtn bike tires.
The biggest concern for hookless rims is the bead construction of the tires which must be a strong re-enforced bead (Conti's are a no-go) and you must limit your air pressure as to not blow the tire off the rim. Tubeless is the only way to go with hookless in my opinion.
