It may be worth trying the strap trick on the flames. If I remember right, someone took one of those ratcheting cargo straps and looped it around the centerline of the tire tread. I guess if you squeeze that in and put some air in, it will pop the bead out to the rim.

I agree that the BOAs are probably overstated as 3.4s.

I’ve used nylon electrical type tie downs to get tires to seat. They work really well on stubborn glue on track type tires.

Stretched the 3” tires on the 4” rims definitely have to use a strap
