The best method I've discovered to prevent pinching tubes is to cut a strip
from a cereal box that's about 2" wide and long enough to go around the
inside of the bead area of the tire with a little extra overlap.  Cut a notch
for the valve stem then use the material to hold the uninflated tube inside
the tire (be sure to use talc - baby powder - on the inside of the tire
before slipping in the tube).  Assemble the wheel and inflate the tube.
