Ok, does anyone have a trick to seat new tires on rims ? I just installed new tires on the ZX9R using the zip tie method. It was pretty easy. Now I need to seat the tires on the rim so I can inflate them. I tried spinning the tire and dropping it (on the tire not rim) from a foot off the floor, but that didn't do much to help. I have a typical homeowner air compressor. But I think that between the valve on the air compressor hose, and the valve in the rim, I am not getting enough air flow to force the tire onto the rim edge. If I take the valve out of the rim, it obviously won't trigger the valve in the compressor hose to release air from the compressor. What's the trick to doing this ?
