Mounted both of them up last night with no issues and did a quick spin around the parking lot, gonna ride them on the TT course this evening. Rims are smooth with three layers of tubeless tape, so hopefully they'll be ok.
I suspect you will be fine. I would have suggested pumping them full up and let them sit for a few hours before you ride them, if you have not done so.

Let us know how you like them.
