You need a steel beaded clincher tyre ( they don't flex so much as the folding kevlar beaded modern types apparently).
And they rims are only rated up to 100psi max.
Get a nice old pair of michellin dynamics from chain reaction for about £18 a pair.
I run this combo with no problems after having a gatorskin blow off whilst standing still (at about 120psi.)
