slicing radials on combat rims

Posted by Ed Bateman on Sunday, April 16, 2006 at 5:19PM :

I'm wanting to mount Michelin 11.00 R16 XZL's radials on combat rims. When calling to order the tubes and flaps they say the rims will slice the tires in the turns. Will this combination survive easy trail use? Are bead lock rings needed? thanks
