That method scares me. A while back, I ran into a write-up on using a ratcheting nylon strap to squeeze the tire enough to seat the bead - It works like perfectly and you get to keep your eyebrows.

The video's been removed, but I am sure it is the same method I've seen used numerous times on the trail with Jeeps. Sure, it's not the safest thing to do; but you do whatever it takes to get you home!

pour some HIGHLY flammable liquid into a tire throw a match it will 'explode' pulling all available oxygen for burning into the tire thusly causing a vacuum effect all this happening in milliseconds and causing the tire to seat itself from the force.... |
