I suspect........
Modern tire casing are much more flexible than the massive basing of CMP tires.... just lifting them makes a big difference.
I also suspect that the modern tire is meant to be flexed to be installed...so the modern bead bends stricly at the push blocks....creating a square pattern with the four blocks allowing the bead to ride up on the rim rather than slide down...... You know I love the snot.... were you using enough of the stuff??? Will need to try our hand on a cold -20C tire casing at the barn to see how it performs. Cheers
