"tubeless" is not a manufacturers sidewall instruction..it is information on tyre type

Had an interesting one today –
Reference section 4.1 of the manual (tyres)

(RFR)

“A tyre not fitted in compliance with the manufacturers sidewall instruction, eg an asymetric with a sidewall marked ‘outer’ fitted with the marking to the inner side of the wheel”

Now the normal usage for this rfr is for the example quoted or for incorect direction of rotation.

But today, whilst checking a tyre which was clearly marked “tubeless” on the sidewall – it had a tube fitted!

What would you do?
