To get the wheel back on my T3 I took out the valve stem and used a ratchet strap to squeeze the tire (i had to cut the strap to be small enough) the good news is walmart has both the valve tool for like 2 bucks and a strap for about the same.

Have you tried loosening the brakes, and rotating the wheel?
I know they hone the wheel's drum brake pots off axis for a reason, or something...
Rotating it could put it in the correct position, and slide it on easier.
