This is a Schwalbe studded winter tire I bought a few months ago, and I’m not sure what exactly I did to get it like this but for some reason the bead seems to be warped or stretched. It doesn’t want to fit my rims. There’s a small section of the tire that’s popped out of the rim, and when I try to lever it back into place the bead pulls out further down.
I’ve tried this tire on two different rims with the same results, and to make doubly sure it isn’t the rims I put on one of my old Schwalbe Marathon tires which fit perfectly. Both tires are 40-635 700b.
Is this repairable? I don’t have much experience dealing with tires but I find it unusual that this tire seemed to be fine until now when I changed out the wheel.
I’d go around the tire and make sure it’s not over-seated too far in on the other side. Try to make sure it’s evenly seated all the way around.
I usually do that at around 5 to 10 PSI with the rim mounted on the bike, so I can give it a good spin and observe for uneven seating on the rim, at low PSI to start with so I can work the bead in evenly by hand, then once evenly mounted, pump the tire up to full pressure.
If that doesn’t do the trick, the tire just might be stretched or damaged, or perhaps the wrong size.
