Looking for some advice please

I ripped the valve on my inner tubing whilst inflating it :oops:

I have Schwalbe marathon pluses which everybody knows are a bugger to get off but even harder to get back on :twisted:

Right here's the thing I use the tyre levers to get the tyre off of the rim but when I go to put the tyre back on there gets to a point where I have to use the tyre levers to get the tyre back on BUT according to some bike websites using tyre levers to get a tyrel back on is a big NO NO

Can anyone shed any light on this as there is no way I could get the tyre back on by hand.

Thanks

Mark
