i find it easy to stand on the wheel and take a crobar or something that size with leverage and stick it in between the wheel and tire the push n pull to pry the wheel off...use a few screwdrivers to place in between the tire and wheel as you work your way around the tire...n if u still cant get it take them to the nearest place where they work on cars ex: (body shop, some walmarts, exhaust company, tire place) there are lots of places that can do it for u and for all 4 tires it should cost no more than $20...good luck

put the end of a 2x6 on the edge of the wheel, and drive onto it with a vehicle, works quick and easy

that ^/\ /\ /\^ or the 2x4 method works great. If you are just doing it once go with the board. If you are going to be breaking the bead alot invest in the Beadbreaker. (Why do you want to save the old ones) Anyways if the board doesn't work just cut em off.:devil: :muscle:
