Pretty much "what everyone else said", it's all good advice.
Additionally, there's something else I've done with next-to-impossible-to-mount road tires and tubes. I use a pair of mechanics gloves with leather palms. You wouldn't believe how much less it hurts your hands to try and "roll" that last bit of tire onto the rim - actually for me it's 100% pain-free. Never had an issue getting a super tight tire on the rim, no problems with grip or lack of it and have not pinched a tube this way either. It's pretty much my go-to method for uncooperative tires/rims.
