Pump up the tube to about 5 psi, check all around the wheel to make sure the bead is seated, and the tire isn't pinched. Finally, jam the valve stem back into the tire to make sure the tire bead at the stem gets below the tube. That's the area where the bead is most likely not to seat well. Pushing up the valve stem lets the bead get around the tube and seat properly.
