Seating That FIRST Tire Bead: Easy Method

There are various methods online for seating the second tire bead, but you can take much of the fight out of it if you are able to seat the first tire bead beforehand.
This is especially the case with new tires, because the beads are close together, and not out where they will seat on your rim. Once you have that first bead seated, you can use several methods... even just pushing the wheel in to the remaining bead... to easily finish the job.

I tried every method I could find with no luck: rope, tie strap, starting fluid, etc. I had spent hours and was ready to take it to a shop. The method you show worked. 25 minutes after watching it, both tires were on. I can’t thank you enough.

I successfully used this technique on two D-rated 225/75R15 RV tires, even though I couldn't get the back side bead to seat completely and I forgot to remove the valve core on one. No problem - they both popped right on, and it was far less of a struggle than using the ratchet strap, fire or even a proper bead blaster methods (mine was broken, hence why I was on YT looking for an alternative method).

@@proto57 well the way tires are increasingly coming from over seas, collapsed sidewalls are a growing problem. Adding tricks to combat the issue is essential. I can see this working well in conjucntion with a bead seater tank. Yes I have had them not seat with one of those alone too.

when you were jumping up and down, holding onto whatever it is, you were holding onto there on the side your heels were pushing down the opposite side, so that was prohibiting you from getting that be sealed if you would’ve faced that away from the tire or spun the tire so that the area you wanted was actually the back your heels while jumping in the same direction it would’ve seeded

Very very good. When re-mounting I prefer to use tyre soap pasre.....all that spay lead to lots of liquid trapped inside the tyre for ever more.....possible corrosive as well. Here in the uk...dish washing liquid contains salt. Tyre soap can be bought in small tube for a few bucks. Glad you mentioned taking out the valve core....lets the air rush in much faster....blasts those walls outwards. I also have quick release air fitting on the end of my airline.....I pop that on the valve....it seals on the rubber of the valve.....WIOW the air flows well then. Great job though.

Thanks, Nickaxe... and those are all great tips. I do often wonder if using water-based lubricant is a very good idea. It stays in there pretty much forever. I'll look for alternatives like this "tyre soap" you mention, and keep it on hand for the next time... All the best, Proto

@@nickaxe771 You didn't come across negative at all to me. You just added some important ideas and points. BTW I am similar to you... I'm 66 now, and have been changing my own tires since I was 16. In the past, because I just did everything... it was always cheap to have done, I just worked on all my own cars myself. Fun memory of "those days": I was 16 years old, driving my 1940 Chevy Special Deluxe about 12 miles from home, when a tire blew. Of course I had no spare. So I was hitchhiking back home, and the first ride let me off on a little bridge (only half a mile from my house). I was walking across the bridge, and in the shallow water I see a tire. So I go down and pull it out... it has green plants growing on it, and was probably in there since the 1950's. But it had no dry rot, and still had tread! So I rinsed it off, and rolled it up to the road, and hitch hiked back to my car with the tire. I got to my car and removed the flat, rolled it across the street to a garage, and the mechanic put it on the rim for $2 (EDIT TO ADD: I didn't have my tire irons in the car). That was one of the best tires I had on that car, and I drove it like that for another year or two.

WOW a 1940 Chevy Special Deluxe at 14....you have some great cars and trucks over there.....I love the old stuff. Love the story of the old tyre in the river....can you see that happening today. I have a 59 year old Land Rover...until about 10 years ago I used to regroove its tyres....loads of rubber still after the tread is near gone with an electric regrover......... You must have some great memories like me.....only person ever worked on my cars is me....I like to be self surfactant. Bought the old Landrove new when I was 22 my mate thought me mad. How do you bread beads and get tyres off....I see those Hf tyre change machine are very popular over there.....we can get them here but I just used tyre iron....3ft long....got them for the landrover.....but great for cars.....and a DIY bead breaker....does the job with ease.

@@nickaxe771 Cool on the Land Rover! I kick myself for not picking up one up back in the day... what seemed expensive at the time is peanuts today. I do drive an LR2... but not a "real" Land Rover, but more a Ford platform built in the Liverpool factory. I love it though. I break beads with a 2x6 board placed like a ramp right up to the rim of a tire laying on the lawn. Then I carefully drive up the ramp until the bead pops. I have done this dozens of times over the years, but would like to improve it with a curved edge to the "ramp", and a softer liner underneath where it contacts the rubber. It works fine as is, but that would be better.

You don't have to manually seat the one side. Work the tire close to being sealed on the side with the stem. It should still be loose on the rim. Spray bothe beads well with soapy water, then start inflating. That's it. Keep your fingers out of the head area and you're good to go.

I'm 210lbs and tried this with a 4.80-12 trailer tire; never could get that first bead fully seated. Also, tried using a couple of spare 14" tires underneath, instead of wood blocks, and was able to enjoy a pretty effective trampoline effect... but still no bead action. 😅

I'm sorry it didn't work for you. Without seeing your setup and attempt, I couldn't give any possible reasons. I would say you need a solid base, and I don't think using tires as a base would work... which you also realized. But what was your first support made of? Was it solid? And did you use a lubricant, like soapy water, or tire bead lubricant?

It is soapy water. Dishwashing liquid (Ajax) about 1:4. But others have pointed out that it is not a great idea to use water-based lubricants on tires, and there are, apparently, products made for this. Next time I do a tire I will use one of those, instead. I see one called "Bright Knight", a "Tire Mounting Lube and sealer", which I might try.

Well of course having someone do anything is always the other option. But it's not just one thing, it's a great many things... tire changes on two trailers, a motorcycle, three cars, it's tune ups, and roof work, building projects, siding, body work, yard work like mowing lawns, pruning, cutting down trees... splitting wood... it's a million and one things that we can choose to do ourselves, not only to save money, but to save time, and because we like it. Can we pay others to do it all for us? Sure. Many do. But the satisfaction, and the money and time saved, is to me very much worth it. And, BTW, I'm 65 and I never broke a bone in my life... or lost a finger or toe, for that matter. No fires, accidents, expensive broken stuff... So you are right, it is a choice. For me, it is an easy one. To each their own, though, that's fine.
