Pleiades is on a distinguished road
As has been previously mentioned - the front is not a safety rim. Only the rear has a safety rim, with a lip to prevent the tyre bead slipping inwards when low on pressure or deflated. Up front there is nothing for the bead to pop into, so you will be able to push it inwards when there's no air in the tyre.

I think you are possibly fighting a problem that doesn't actually exist!
