I really asked the right group on this question. I did the strap around the tire trick this morning and it worked like a charm. It's really lucky for me that I didn't the starter fluid trick first, or I might have tried it just for the fun of it. Those you-tube videos were great. There must have been a dozen of them showing the same trick... Thanks for all the help!

I really asked the right group on this question.  I did the strap around the tire trick this morning and it worked like a charm.  It's really lucky for me that I didn't the starter fluid trick first, or I might have tried it just for the fun of it. 

Those you-tube videos were great.  There must have been a dozen of them showing the same trick... 

Thanks for all the help!

Being a gas caddy I don't think spraying the interior of the tire with flammable liquid and lighting it off is the way to go.  There might be more excitement generated than you would want.  I have used the ratcheting cargo strap method to expand the bead on my lawn tractor.  In fact I used two of the 1" straps, one on each side to pull the tire in.
