Tubeless or Tubeless Ready or UST? Hopefully this will help: from Continental's website: "In contrast to UST tires, Tubeless Ready tires are lighter and are therefore air-permeable. This is sealed with a special sealing milk." This from Schwalbe: "Tubeless Ready tires are not tubeless tires. By using sealing liquid in a special process they can, however, be converted into tubeless tires." From Hutchinson: "Tubeless Ready requires latex sealant to seal the casing, as opposed to a butyl liner on the inside of the tire as with a normal Tubeless tire." Note that the liner adds weight and stiffness

UST just is Mavic's name for their system of tubeless rims and tires, which they've specifically designed to work well together--some tubeless tires are very difficult to mount on tubeless rims; conversely, there's the concern that poorly-fitted tubeless tires could blow off.
