2 things here, dont try beiting a raial tire, to get it on the bead, just wont work, especially with steel belted tires.  No. 2, most modern starting fluid is tame, may catch the tire aflame, but wont seat the bead, read the can ingredients.  Good luck.

Used to have these big O rings you would soap up and put between tire bead and rim, they would pop out when you put the air to the tire. Didn't always work but helped sometimes. Using  Coates 10-10 machines way back.

Yep, Coates 10-10

Had the big o ring and a inflatable belt to go around the outside

Used a ratchet strap on a lawn tractor tire yesterday
