ENVE makes a great wheel. I had some regular 3.4 SESs on one bike. They were stellar! On this bike, I'm tempted to use some Zipp 303s but my alloy builds have been 100% with 24x28 CX Rays.
A friend had an issue recently but while it was odd, I think one has to be careful with the tubeless ENVEs. His was the AR version and tubeless. I don't think he used the ENVE tape but some other tape. Anyway, while the shop was inflating it to seat the new tires, air escaped into the lower chamber (that is not meant to be pressurized) and it blew up that part of the rim. ENVE warrantied it, which was great. ENVE later said to only use their tape and valves.
