heat the wheels up till they go all gooey and then slip the tyres on...........simple
and the put your gooey sh1t wheels on your sh1t burner!!!  :LolLolLolLol::daumenhoch:


not really just lube the tyres up with washing up liquid and they should just slip on

make sure the part of the tire you have got on the rim is sat right down in the troff of the rim (where the spoke holes are). This should give you the 'slack' to get the rest of the tire on.
