Got my new tires and trying to get the old ones off. I got proper spoons to do it but wow these beads are TIGHT. more so than car tires. Any trick to breaking the beads on these tires.
I been using a heat gun to warm up tire and trying to break the bead and cant get it. The tire is too wide (Rear) for the vice trick? I was thinking of trying the board on it and carefully driving truck on it to break the bead but any other ideas. I have a Harbor Freight tire changer not bolted down anywhere but I may try to find a pallet or something to bolt that to so I can use the bead breaker portion on that if I can again find something to bolt the damn thing too.
Just looking for other recommendations or tricks other people have used.
Thanks!!!!
