Default Mounting 13inch drag slicks

I'm in the process of remounting my set of 24.5x8x13 back onto 13" lenzo's with tubes. The problem I'm having is that I can't get the top bead to fully seat. I'm going nuts. I've mounted a gazzilion tires but this is fighting me to the death. Just to clarify, these tires came off these rims. Does anyone have any secrets to gettng this to work? 50 psi was the highest inflation I went to.

Alright I finally got the beads to seat. Our bathroom handsoap did the trick. Its the weird smelling pink stuff you see in every public bathroom. I applied just a small amount to where the bead wouldn't fully seat and presto.
