Try driving over it with a plank of wood and a truck to break the bead. I cut one off before with a razorknife and some wirecutters...But I'll never do that again.
I imagine your putting a new one on. Someone on here said walmart is real reasonable. Most likely whether your old one is off or on they would charge you the same price.
Yes,(what Chris said) driving around the bead but on the tire itself will break the bead. I didn't use a board at all.
You want to be as close as possible to the rim edge and turn the front wheel (moving forward a bit) to go with arc of rim. Depending on vehical the vehical rim can get darn close to the ATC rim so watch you don't gouge it.
Wd-40 it before you do it. Might take a few tries.
Take it to the shop. It cost me $13.00 a tire and thats pretty high. I let them deal with it and if they screw the rim up you get a new one for Free.![]()
