I cheat. I put the fork of a telehandler against the bead next to the rim and push with the boom. they usually pop right in on newer tires. IF older and rusted like yours might have to do that a couple places to get it loose. I would spray/pour some diesel fule or other rubber lubricant like murphy's tire compound dilluted in water to loosen some of the rust and let soak for a few days first. Tires that have been setting rusted on like those will take a lot of work getting loose. It might even be worth the cost to take the tires and rims in and have them break them down for you. IF you look around you will find several options for bead breaking. From slide hammers to tire machines that would push them off faster than you can set them up. I have even started out by driving chisels in under the lip of the rim then a bigger chisel till I was drivng flat bars in and so on till it broke down. Then do the other side. When you put the new ones on use the murphy's tire mounting compound. IT does not cause rust at the rims like dish soap can and usually will over time. Putting on I get the one side started then put a vise grip on the side of the rim to hold the bead from walking off as I pry it on. It also holds the tire bead from sliding around the rim as you pry it on too.
