Default help please

I need some serious tire help from the big dogs! I have been trying for the past few weeks to get a tire to stretch and bead on the rear wheels of my new set up with no luck at all My Wheel specs are 18x12 -13. I first went big and tried a 245/40/18 with no luck. I also had a set of 265/35/18 laying around and decided to try them. Again no luck multiple tries using every method in the book! Either bombs/cheeter tank/bike tubes/straps/etc... Im all out of ideas. Also When I do the either or cheeter it seems to work then all the sudden the tires bead just pops off the wheel. The front tires went on no problem 18x10 +12 235/40/18. Its been really depressing and I almost actually sold them because of this.
So if any of you guys have any other tips or tricks I havent mentioned please let me know! I would truely appreciate it.

You could fit 225/40 on the front and 265/35 for the rears are good. Maybe you need to go with a different brand tires. Try them nexens, generals, khumos

Dang! I totaly forgot to add that to my first post. Both the cheeter and the fire method were tried with air line on the wheel with no valve stem.

rps13drift,,

What tire brand are they? That could be your main reason.. also a 245/40 on that 12" will not work..

265/35 will def work... again it could be your tire selection, if they are run flats they will never fit.. trust me cause I tried some run flats for drifting and the tire blew and broke my buddies knee..

Johnny, that will fit no prb, just a littler or on the fenders and you should be good. when you place the car on the ground it will camber in more so you should be striaght..

i wish someone would build a z like this. tucking looks sooooo much better than attempting to fit stupidly low offset wheels that end up poking like a lowrider.

Thanks for the help Royal T! The 245's were dunlups and the 265's are Nexans
My last idea I have is to try two cheeters at the same time with an air line pumping! If that fails im screwed!
