OK, I've searched until my head is spinning.  I've got an idea of 
what size tire I want for stock rims, which are 5.5J x 15, but the 
Redlines on there (20+ years old!) have tubes.

As I understand it, wheels without a safety bead need tubes to make 
sure you don't have an air-out in a sharp corner.  Do stock TR6 
wheels have a safety bead?  If not, are you running tubes in your tires?

I also discovered some tubeless tires will void the warranty by 
running tubes...  *sigh*
