Floyd,
That really sucks. Iv changed over a dozen scooter tires, mine and others. The most damage Iv ever done was scratched some paint on the rim when the tire iron slipped. I cant wrap my head around how you were able to damage the rim. That kind damage usually occurs when you hit a curb or rock at a decent speeds.
That tire is junk, it has a hole where the sidewall meets the tread. Plus where you broke the rim, the tires bead is all bent up, both of these things are not safe. Throw it out.
I think when you get all the parts to fix this, I highly suggest paying someone to do this for you. Rims and tires are not cheap. If you want to learn how to do this, find a shop that will let you watch, 10-15 buck for a tire change is a hell of a lot cheaper than a $100 rim and 35-45 dollar tire.

The rim was busted when I bought scooter. I didn't do the rim damage with the tire irons

I have a rim with a Michelin s4 I would sell you. It's an aluminum rim in flawless condition.

I saw a video where the guy put zip ties around the tire at about 6 inch intervals.
Then he sprayed the crap out of it with Windex and slipped,it on with some minimal effort. Once on, he simply snipped the zip ties.
It looked easy anyway.
