For reseating tubless tires there are some tricks which I never tried out (maybe I better do before I go)

- spray a bit quick start in the tire, and 'ignite' it by using the spray can as a flame trower.
- Carry a 16inch moped or bicycle tire. This tire can be used to seal the gap between the rim and the tire. The complete procedure was in the update section of the Sahara Overland website, but I can't find it back.

That’s a dangerous solution that resulted in a number of accidents. Better carry a decent compressor and use a ratchet strap instead.
