It makes it a bit easier to get the beads down into the deeper part of the rim so you can stretch the bead over the flange on the rim.  A rubber mallet is also helpful for tapping the bead over the rim.
An extra pair of hands is a big help on a job like this. Those 4.00x8 
wheelbarrow/combine pickup tires are stubborn sometimes.
