So got the shit aired up! Took no longer than 15 minutes max to air up both tires once we figured it out.
Procedure:
Play with fire+ether starting fluid.
^Heats up the tire and makes it more malleable or something
Then use bike tire and keep the fucker in there while you air up tire.
Then once it seats take it out.
Presto.
This was with a 245/40/18 on a 10.5 rim.
Gonna try it again with the 235/40's i've got. Seems to be the BEST method to get a stretch on an rpf1 (notoriously know to be a BITCH to stretch tires on - double drop center)
Here's a pic of it on the car.
More pics to come!

No, i had a buddy put em on. We spent 3 days trying to figure out the procedure. Went to two different shops i know people at.
Ended up seating them at a friends house as well.
And yeah... didn't even care to edit myself out lol.

actually, one wasn't buckled. Then my friend was like "ooh, it's starting to buckle" and helped it along.... lmao
I did everything i could to try and keep it from buckling. Not sure how anyone else with an s13 gets away without it buckling, even had them roll it while i held my hand back there. I didn't even do that crazy of a pull..

You can still see where it creased but it is way better than it was before.
Wonder if i put them in there before if i could have gotten away clean all together.
