    When I worked on heavy trucks, we'd set beads this way.

    A few tricks to help you live longer. Ether/starting fluid works. 3 seconds sprayed in the rim then spray the ground and light the ground. That allows your dangly bits to not be in the immediate vicinity of the tire if it decides to get all explodey. Don't do it on hazmat or logging trucks, obvs.
