Man, these tires are bee-atch to mount, even with the tire changer.
 The problem seems to be the nearly 50 year old rims. The edges are straight, not rolled, and there isn't much of a drop center, so the tire is fighting me the entire time. At least I have two mounted. These took just a tad over an hour which is better than two nights with no success.
