BearKiller, 3 months ago | FlagYeah I have seen the starting fluid trick done before just didn't have any handy. We tried the rachet strap but it didn't work either. We got it though that's all the counts in the end

HI; The easy way is to spray a small amount of starting fluid in the tire. Then lite. 
BOOM and the bead is set.. I have done this with many tires and have not damaged anything.. IT WORKS . Or if you are the nerves type you can use a tie down strap. The kind that has the ratchet. Then just start to tighten up on the tire .. while adding air.. Looks like fun any way...
My buddies Aaron and Dennis just using their hands and one knee and a lot of tire goop to finally get an air seal.
