If you want to stay tubeless:
Force the tire beads toward the wheel rims by twisting a rope or
belt around the centerline of the tire.


Another method that works well, especially with large tires, is to spray
in some either into the gap and threo a match in. The bead gets sealed
instantly enough to inflate normally


Remove the Schraeder valve from the fill point to let more air in
faster.

Once you have the tire seated, replace Schraeder and give it a
dose of SLIME or equal.

If you don't care about tubeless, get in innertube, pull out the
valve core, reassemble and inflate.
