Are you having difficulty putting the inner of the tire back onto the rim? If so, heres how it probably can be done.
Id imagine its similar to bike tubes. Dont use a screw driver unless you dont mind putting dings in your rim.
First, when installing the tube, make sure to put a little air in it before you put it in. If you dont you risk having it kink/twist/pinch and will weaken your tube. Sounds like you already have one side of the tire off, so ill just tell ya how to reinstall it. Once you have your tire installed and the stem pointing the right direction, install the tire oppisite of the stem first. Then start pushing it all down until you cant by hand. Using a bike tire lever (cheap, buy the 3 pack, youll be much happier than the one), youll insert it between the tire and rim and lever it on, working your way to the stem. Having the 3 pack, you can lever one side on, and they have a clip so that it can hold it in while you do the next side. Having one, you risk having it pop out on ya and having to do it again.
If its tubeless, you can try what they did in that video. Though, we usually use an aerosol product (hair spray perfered over bug spray...), spray for a second or two, then light it. Youll probably need to bleed air afterwards. We do this with tubeless mountain bike tires when no compressor/co2 is around. You need fast high pressure air to get the bead to set, so bike pumps wont do cut it. Most bike/sports stores will do it for ya for free.
Hope thats what the problem was!
