I'm with others... if 1/4" spacers or a tad of grinding, you should be fine.

What does concern me is the wheels, which are indeed cool as hell. Something that was called to my attention some years ago, was a warning against using tubes in tubeless radial tires.

Since radials flex so much, the inside of the tire rubs against the tube, causing excess heat, and potential failure.

Don't know if that's true or some wives tale.. but do your research. If that is cause for failure, it would happen at speed.
