Take the valves out of the valve stems.

If the screw in valve caps are accessible it would be unfortunate if a single lentil got shoved into the cap. That would cause a slow leak without physically damaging the tire.

The caps on the valve stem of my old bike had a tool in the opposite end for doing this moulded in. Small and convenient.
