I guess, tried different things for two hours. Pinched the beads together, soaped up the sides, try and "help" the beads on the rim. After a lot of swearing and pumping like a mad man I called a bike shop and asked if they had an air compressor. Showed up, one squirt of air and the beads popped. Squirted in the Stans latex through the stem, another blast of air and I walked out of there shaking the wheel while I walked back to my car.
If the rear was harder, it mean the tyres bead wasn't in the middle of the rim making it a lots harder to install.
