You can see from the photos that I pressed them in using the inner bore. Since you can see that I don't have to tell you anything! If I'd had a tool to press on the outer races I would have used it because it's obvious this method is preferable in this situation.
I greased all the parts well and used very little torque to slowly press them in and I'm confident I didn't damage anything. If there had been excess resistance I would have aborted the task. Time will tell, however.
