I wish it only cost $6 here to get a tyre fitted here. More like $20 each on a good day. I do my own, front and rear on our tractors. When I fitted new front tyres on our Farmall H (5.50-16) I had the rims blasted and painted. To avoid damage I lay the rim on some heavy cloth and applied a liberal amount of rubber grease to the bead on the tyre. Easy to force the tyre on without any levers at all. Then fit the semi inflated tube and repeat the process for the other bead. The second bead is a little more trouble and may require two people to get enough push to force it on. If all is well the tube will behave. I have never pinched a tube by this method and it removes the possibility of damaging paint with a tyre lever. The rubber grease stops the bead rusting on to the rim.
