tubeless on clincher

I was talking to a friend that recommended trying tubeless tires on clincher rims. I have two sets of Ksyriums and would like to try this with one set. Has anybody done it? Also what materials/sealers do I need?

Thanks.

you can use stans no tubes, or something like that. ive done it before just for fun, but was worried the whole time while riding, so i switched back. its messy stuff. id say dont do it though. unless your really worried about saving the weight associated with tubes (and in that case you should upgrade a different part of your bike instead of doing stuff which wasnt meant to be done), or if you get pinch flats often, stay away from it.
