Standard steel wheel designed for tubes. Part number ANR4636.
Mixed opinion on how safe tubes are in tubeless tyres. It's suggested they can chafe/puncture over time. I also understand the bead is different and won't seat properly and could theoretically come off
I've no experience of either points so unless someone else more knowledgeable comes along I'd check with your insurer if they are ok with it

I don't think that you will find any tyres that are tubeless these days, other than specialist vintage stuff.
Tubeless tyres have ribs on their inner walls that can in theory rub through the tube, I have only ever had this happen on a trials bike run with low tyre pressures and that was because the rim lock wasn't working correctly.
You must not use tyres without tubes on rims designed for tubes as they do not have a bead retention groove, there is no problem seating tubless tyres on tubed rims as long as a tube is fitted.

You are quite right finding tube only tyres is nearly impossible these days but there are still several options available which are tube compatible and can be run either tubeless or with tubes depending on the rim requirements. (as @Rougharse Racing stated it is the rim design which dictates the need to use tubes or not, rather than the tyre.)

I hate to break it to you but only one of those is "wolf" wheel
There may be more choice of tubless tyres, but it is far easier to change tubed ones yourself and they are far cheaper when you get a puncture..
