I use a sawzall and cut across the tire and right into the rim on both sides till I get through the bead. Then just peel the tire off the rim.

I use my log splitter . I put tire down on its side and just crush the rim. It works great on aluminum rims. but it will do most steel car tire rims.

of course it helps to have 18 in dia forearms

used to stomp on the tire to break the seal (400 lbs size 13 eee foot)- then use a wrecking bar to pry em off -- or the easy way bit of starter fuel (ether) and a match and BLOW EM OFF

a bit of starter fuel and a match will BLOW EM OFF --BANG

theres only a very few bothersome problems that can not be solved with the proper use of explosive matter.

All problems CAN be solved by the proper application of high explosive! You just gotta use more explosive for some problems than others!
