Many an inner tube has been munched (not that I have ever done it...) trying to assemble the nose wheel on these RV's. The method I prefer to eliminate this problem is to first seat one bead on the rim half (the one with the inner tube stem groove) using an arbor press or some such contraption. Then put the tube in, with minimal air. One can experiment to find the optimum. Then, as shown in the picture, I used clamps to put the other bead of the tire below the rim mid point. Some care must be used to keep the inner tube out of the way, but the nice part is that one can see it. Once this is done, it is simply a matter of assembling and torquing the other rim half.
