It seemed that it was going to be impossible to mount that tire on the rim.
The first time I installed mine, I was having the same problems with the bead popping off at places I though were already set. My method to get them to stay was the wrap a zip-tie around the rim and tire once that section was mounted. Make them nice and tight and put one every 8 inches or so, and that tire won't be going anywhere.
