Anyone know if these rims are Stans No-Tubes compatible?

They can be converted - either with rim tapes, or an old inner tube valve cut to size, some layers of strong tape of the right width and a mix of 1 pt water and 4-5 parts art shop latex. I converted my DT 430 (same rim section) rims this way, can be tight getting tyres on but they work fine with UST tyres. There's a technique to it but it's worth figuring out.
