Velocity A23 and pinch flats

Anyone have experience with these rims?

I installed Velotape (2 layers since I'm using these wheels on my road bike) on my A23 wheels however I keep tiny punctures near the valve. I noticed the valve hole is pretty narrow and when the tire is inflated, there are small indentations on the tire on both sides where the valve is. Anyone know what's going on here? I thought these rims were suitable to use with regular tube and tire, not just tubeless setup.

Thanks!
