Default Tricks to mounting tires?

I'm replacing the worn 6" tires on my buggy.

When I was shopping for them, I kept reading posts under the tire reviews about how difficult they are to mount. I was just planning to put them in the sun to warm up and soften a bit and then use some soap to help get them on the rim and then a ratchet strap to help set the bead while I inflated.

Does anyone have any other tips or tricks?

I've done plenty of bike and motorcycle tires, but the much smaller ID on a buggy tire, I'm assuming it's much more difficult.

Thanks.
