pump just enough into the tube for it to take a round shape then place it inside the tire. yw

it should seat better when you pump a little more air into it and it expands tonthe tire. check to make sure the tire is the right size

maybe you need better rim tape... also the tube might be a little too big for your rim size perhaps. and if you're getting flats, you probably aren't pumping the tire to enough psi.

It's difficult to 'seat the bead' of a tubeless tire. You need air pressure to make the seal tight, but can't get the pressure without having a good seal first. Tire shops have a 'blaster' that blasts a bunch of air in at once. If you don't have one handy, you can use a can of ether to create a small explosion inside the tire. 4-wheelers running very low tire pressure and off-road truckers (like me) end up getting good at it.
>tldr: Red neck tire change.

So he puts some ether in the tire and then sets it off from the outside with a lighter and the 'explosion' seats the bead? Nevah seen that un befo.

Tuck the tube into the tire when you're reseating the tire. Also, push the valve through the rim so the tube is all the way in the tire there too.

That the neatest thing I've ever read.
Maybe second only to how they change tyres on the railways.
