You don't want to use a mountain tire on a trainer. Sounds like a plane taking off and eats up the tire really quickly. So even if it did work, most likely you wouldn't have wanted to keep that setup for long. If it were me and I didn't want to play with tubeless tires, I'd probably check Craigslist for something cheap, assuming I planned on using the trainer enough to get my money's worth. And a bolt on rear wheel should be fine, at least with any of the trainers I've used.
