i found that a very light sand helped settle the tires in, but found a quick belt up and down the street help just as well.

when I was using them in the past, I found the best way to get them sort was applying some simple green, give them a great soak, then some FXII for about 45mins or so, and that help a lot. As a race meet processed and time was precious, then reapplying both just kept them in reasonable condition.
