Got new tires for the car but they won't seat on the wheel. We got it lubed up with soapy water try and push against the wheel to get it to seat but no go. Tried the strap trick around the center of the tire and drop the tire still no luck. Used starter fluid and a match no go. Any one else have any tricks? We did try the bicycle inter tube started going then the inter tube blew out. Tires are mickey Thompson sportsman s/r 26x10 going on a 15x8 rim.

Got the front 26x8 Mickey Thompson sportsman radial's yesterday got the letters painted today.1150144_623693160998994_90229387_n.jpg hopefully this weekend I can get them mounted and balanced.

 

I like them Rob. Cant wait to see them on the car.

Too bad I didn't see this til now... The one time my shop had a really hard time getting one to seat, we had to use air tool oil around the bead. Still took about 90 psi to seat, and I wouldn't recommend taking them that high without a cage.

 

I like the gold lettering though, nice work!
