Take the tyre and the wheel you just assembled. Angle the tyre to t it over the rim. Trying to exert a constant pressure, ease the tyre walls over the circumference of the rim a little at
a time.

Repeat the process on the other side of the wheel. Then check that the tyre is evenly seated all round by making sure that the inner circles moulded into the rubber are concentric with the
wheel rim. If they aren’t, you can gently bounce the tyre on a at surface to adjust the position.
