if you purchase the correct size innertube (instead of inflating a smaller one) you might have to remove the washer around the valve stem. you might also find you have to push in the valve stem just alittle to seat the tire inplace. then you can pull it back out. its just sometimes the thicker rubber around the stem gets in the way of the bead on the tire.
any questions?
 
The tire will fit on the rim, that's what I have on mine: a 24x3.0" tire on a 24x1.0" rim.

But you will need to check if a 3" tire will fit in your frame. It's almost exactly 3" wide at the widest point.
