Grease up the side you are pressing on the rim so that is will slide on easier as my dad illustrates. Make sure the direction of rotation will end up the correct way NOW before going any further to prevent further headaches for yourself.

Once you get the first lip of the tire on the rim it should look like this.

Then you will want to start working the outside of the tire and pushing it on the rim like so.

At this point you will need a pair of screw drivers or tire irons what ever you have and you will need to spread the outside bead of the tire on the rim.

You will then need to move your knees around the outside to keep the tire down until you get the whole tire over the rim.

Once you get all the way around the rim it should look like this.

Next you will want to get a ratchet strap and put it around the tire in the center to distribute the load.
