Deflate them and you'll find out if they popped in place or if they merely covered the edge of the rim. You should always deflate then re-inflate an inner tube type tire anyway to make sure the inner tube has not folded over on itself during installation.

They were inflated and deflated a number of times each. Most of the tires did a very “satisfying” (scary loud) pop when the bead went into place on the rim.
