Worth noting that if you use LB rims with no tape and tubeless tires, you are gonna have a HELL of a time getting the tires off. The bead retention ridge is really square. Having TL tape does 3 (good) things:
1) reduces the amount of friction between tire and rim. This mitigates the problem at hand.
2) creates a smoother path for the tire to come over the bead retention ridge when you want to remove the tire
3) increases the diameter of the rim, which improves fit/air retention/security.
I'm not entirely certain where the aversion to TL tape comes from. If you buy tape that's the right size, it's really hard to mess it up. DT swiss tape that's inner width + 2 or 3 mm wide works really well. So 27mm for you. Add 2mm for hooked rims (since inner width is measured between the hooks).
Also... this problem has absolutely nothing to do with hooks.
