I used a food grade dialectical grease for the o ring seal for the bead lock rings from harbor freight and just used dish soap a little water if needed and a paint brush to mount tires.

Here's some pics of what I've done so far.

I did not use a tube you can not on theses rims. This is my first time mounting them myself. I used dish soap and an o ring style tool to mount it. I used the trucks air. Thanks for the tips This thread hopefully will answer some of the questions other members might have. I ll try to make a...

OK I finally got the tire mounted. I couldn't get the Murphy tire soap. I did find a trick to get that tool off. I used a pry bar and carefully pulled it out at low psi worked like a charm. I saw the rim was only rated at 60 psi I could not find the specs for that NATO NDT as far as air...

I will pick some up tomorrow I could get nothing done today it's been raining non stop.

I will try to work on it tomorrow again. I dismounted the tires with ease from stock wheels with a angled bead breaker and some pry bars from northern tool took my son and I about 10mins to do.

It keeps the front tire bead sealed and is supposed to roll out after the bead seats on the ring

Ya Gimp it's the shiny black o ring just at the lip of the rim. It's about the size of a heater hose.

Here's some pics

I got one tire mounted guys but the rubber o ring type tool Av8or lent me would nt pop off like its supposed to. The tire is stamped 95psi. I aired tire back down and need some advice. Thanks

OK Gimp I saw some vids on that I'll try it Thanks.

OK that's what I wanted to know if there's any safety concerns.

So I'll ask this question I can run my tubes on these wheels with tire flaps safely?

No g I was asking in regards to my other thread on the sewing trailer I got coming home soon.

Now I see what you're saying G. I have to figure what's the best way to approach this job from my perspective. You guys are always a great help Thanks.

I know what you're saying Gimp but it's my understanding the beads won't seat easy and I have to still decide if I want to go tubeless I have access to the valve stems but I already have a lot invested in my tubes already.

I'm not sure G but Ya I do not want run flats. If you have any pics of what you're trying to explain it might help me. I'm no expert at this by any means lol.

I already own the A3 wheels it's the rubber inserts I don't have I heard its a bear to mount the tires without them just want to make this easy my friend.

I just want to keep things easy and cost effective but safety is always priority one. I figured I'd have less issues using tubes and flaps, and would be safer to mount myself.

My tires can run tubes or tubeless G. I don't have the correct valve stems or the bead lock rings just trying to make this job easier and less expensive.
