I put on a new set of xtc tires on the rear and the inside bead set easily but i can't get the out side to pop on.

I used soap first up to 20 psi tire says 15max.

took them to 10 psi hit every whoop i could find.

took them to 4 psi did it again and still nothing!!!!

Any idea on how to get it to set?:huh

one time my dad pumped the tires in my recon up to 32psi, when he looked in the book he thought he saw 32, not 3.2 what it was suppose to be

i'd say you'd be ok pumping a few more pounds in them,,, what are you using to pump them up, it'll work best with a faster pump, like one at a gas station not the normal hand pump

i have a set of blackwaters that had beads that wouldnt set so we put tubes in them
