what I do is take the wheel off and lay it in my garage and then I get a 4 foot 2x6 board and lay it over the rubber and carefully drive my s-10 up the board. THis put pressure over the tire and after doing this a few times working the board around the tire it will break the bead. Its isnt easy and takes a while but works.
