I don't have that tire combo, but the 60 mm Big Apples on my Fargo fit so loosely on the SnoCat SL rims that they, literally, fall off the rims when installing them unless you carefully hold them in place when you start pumping them up. I just continually check the beads as I pump and once you are alert to the problem you can deal with it without much problem. Pump, check, pump, check and so forth. I don't pump mine to more than about 20/25 and usually more like 14/18; once the tube expands enough to push against the tire casing, this at no more than 10 psi, no problem with the bead staying in place.
