BKT tires vs. Titan (Ag tread)

[CincyFlyer]

There are numerous tricks to get tires unseated w/o going to a shop. One of my favorites after you get the air out and spray the rim with soap or liquid dishwashing detergent is to drive your heaviest vehicle on a 2x6 placed to overlap the tire. Sought of like a ramp. drive onto the 2x6 and wait for the tire to unseat. Sometimes they'll do it immediately...other times you might have to wait until morning.

When I tore the valve stem off of my front wheel moving brush, I backed up with the wheels turned to break the bead.

There are many ways to break the bead on tires, I have driven up on them, used a loader bucket to push down on them, bottle jacks under heavy pieces of equipment, stabilizer legs on backhoes work nice to and I have a manual bead breaker I bought from Gemplers that I can use without taking the rim off the tractor, its works good a little slow but I couldn't justify the nice hydraulic one.
