Most of us know that rust is oxidation of steel or iron. You need to have oxygen in order for rust or corrosion to take place. When you put CaCl into a tubeless tire you will have oxidation of the rim taking place for a few days or weeks, until all of the oxygen is consumed, then it stops. The less air in the tire the sooner the process stops. I have a pair of rims that have CaCL and no tube. I had to break one down for a repair after fifteen years. I could see discoloration of the steel and the surface was no longer shiny. Now if you want to ruin the rim, just poke a little hole in the tire and introduce some fresh oxygen every few days. It is well known that CaCl DOES NOT CAUSE RIMS TO RUST. Procrastination does.
