I know that when I inflate freshly mounted tire, I always inflate it just enough to get it firm, then check the seating by spinning the wheel. Usually it takes a little adjustment to get the seating uniform. Occasionally, the tire didn't seat and the tube is bulging out. If I ran it up to full pressure without checking, it would have blown. I learned this the hard way the way most of us learn most of what we know.
