Right here goes, Holeshots can be the devil, with a little sand paper sand bead on rim, degrease, now with the tyre I use old school rallyx method of getting the dremell out and with sanding drum and rough up the bead then clean thoroughly with motor cleaner, fit insert get everything in place on wheel, then fit tyre band to squeeze tyre to rim, then using thick super glue Zap green bottle, or AKA tyre glue etc, lift tyre from rim, apply glue and squeeze getting everything were it should be,tis bit is were the AKA style rim is easier as getting the tyre back into the bead just as you want it before the superglue starts to go can be a ba****d, if you don't get it spot on you have a nasty unbalanced wheel and tyre

with the AKA rallyx style rim you can just lift the bead from the rim slightly apply glue then let tyre band do its work as the tyre should just drop back onto the rim (in theory lol)
