Default F***ing air in the rear tire

For those of who read it correctly as "Filling air in the rear tire", you have remarkably clean minds in today's age and times...

So I am owner of a used M50 for about a month now. Done some mods etc. but the tires looked good so did not mess with them.

Yesterday, I went to the gas station to measure and fill up on the air in my tires. The front read 23 psi so I filled up to 29 as stated on the chasis.

Now the rear tire was a PITA. The air hose nozzle just couldn't fit in there, could not slip on between the tire nozzle and the rear rim. I ended up bending the tire nozzle out quite a bit and then trying to fill it.

Is this something everyone has a problem with? What do you do to fill air in the rear tire?

Thanks
