Do you have pics? If they are the beadlocks you have to take them apart to install them, remove the 6 bolts, place the ring inside the tire. Put the 2 halves back together, reinstall the screws and done

Question Re: Cant seem to find a tire that fits RC4WD wheels??

How exactly does the tire not fit the rim?

RC4WD ships many of that exact combo with Gelande II kits.

Are the tires 1.55? With 1.9 rims?

Preaching to the choir.

Those rc4wd wheels have been the bane of my existence.

If you want a wheel that looks great and will go together easy choose rc4wd race lines. OR Gear Heads. Gear Heads will go together easy no matter what tire and I have tested most.

Rc4wd wagon wheels in particular have left me tearing my hair out.

That particular combination should be very easy to mount. I've done it many times. I start by pulling all 3 pieces of the wheel apart, inserting the beadlock ring inside the tire, then holding the inside and outside faces of the wheel in place while tightening the screws and nuts. If you're still having trouble, some pix and an explanation of how you're trying to do it would help.
