Thanks Andrew for your video, just over 5 minutes right? I have 2 almost treadless tires on my Wrangler and I didn't want to take it to my neighborhood PEP Boys. Back in the 70's I worked at several 'full service' gas stations in the San Fernando Valley and I faintly remember one mechanic showing me how to remove the rim with a crow bar and your video brought it back to a full clear memory.
Glad I found your chan. I expect you will get quite a few suBs via swDweeB. The glass idea is neat. Thinking non tempered glass.
So much working with tires is technique. A friend who used to own a tire shop taught me enough to make do. Seems the smaller the tire the harder it is. I use a BeadBuster XB-450 ATV/Motorcycle/Car Tire Bead Breaker Tool if I run into a tough one. These are over $100 But one could Be faricated.
