I woulda e-mailed pics of my tire irons iffa youda left an address.

Some take the wheel off, put a plank on, and drive another tractor on the plank, breaking the bead. Never worked well for me.

Some have a big heavy tire iron, a blacksmith hammer, and a LOT of pounding. Leave the tire/rim on the tractor, just jack up & block WELL. This has worked for me.

There is a little hydraulic, screw, or air-poowered gadget that the pros use that grabs the rim, & pushes the bead off. Gemplers (www.gemplers.com) sells one that you could look at for example. The good spendy one the pros use at my place works well, don't know how the smaller Gempler's type work for you or me.

Break the bead on both sides, and the rest is pretty easy.
