Yes, funnily enough its a PR3. Took it down yesterday morning to the guy with the bead blaster thing and, to be fair to him, he gave it 4 or 5 goes but couldn't get it to seat.
Last night I took it off the rim and sat it next to the radiator for a couple of hours with a ratchet strap round the center and some things inside the tyre to push the bead out. Worked a treat, put the tyre back on and ratchet strap round the tyre again and it inflated! I'll balance and refit tonight, was nearly midnight when I got done and snowing all night last night so wouldn't have been able use it anyway today. Was so overjoyed at getting the bugger up had to have a couple of beers to celebrate.
