That's a FABULOUS link!
Are there similar sites for other States along the route?
The critical number here is the "559" which is the rim's bead seat diameter in mm. Since both your rim and tire are 559, they are compatible and if the tire won't stay put at any reasonable pressure, something else is wrong. I agree that you have to be certain they are seated properly and that the tube isn't caught under the tire bead.
BTW, why was your neightbor discarding them? Any chance the wire beads were broken or badly kinked?
