I got my Race Stars, and when I ordered them, I ordered Hoosier front runners. The wheels are 17x4.5 and the tires are 27.5"x17x4.5. I for the life of me can not get the bead to pop on. I managed ton get the inside bead on, but the outside will not pop on. I have tried everything. The tires are new, the wheels are new. I have tried soap and watter, basically anything that you can think of.

More pressure. I know you don't want to hear that, but it's probably what it will take. Take them to a tire shop with a cage if you don't feel conferable, they can put tire goop on them and air them till they seat.

Probably have to be a privet shop as a corporate one probably wont let there guys to it.

I can set the tire and wheel outside and run a hose to it while I'm in the shop to control the air. I'm going to hit it with more air tomorrow.

Just to update this, I got them to seat. Hoosier only recommended 40 PSI to seat the beads. Numerous people said more air, so I finally got them to seat at right around 100 PSI.

I tried a strap, but don't think I used enough air.
