I don't know anything about those wheels, but as others have alluded to, tubeless-ready wheels and tires require a very different technique from clinchers.

On mine, I start at the bottom of the wheel at the valve stem and pinch the tire to get it down in the center channel. Pulling the tire away upwards away from the valve stem, I continue pinching the sidewalls and putting them in the center channel. When I do it right, by the time I get to the top of the wheel I barely even need to use a tire lever, I can take the tire right off the rim.

It's hard to explain via text, but once you do it correctly one time, you'll see how easy it is.
