Default EZGO-Tires-Part-2

Morning gentlemen,
A few weeks ago i posted the question about which tire would last the longest and so forth and I ended up getting the 23x10r-12 Excel Street Fox Radial.

Now fast forward to yesterday......

HOW IN THE WORLD DO I BREAK THE BEAD ON THE TIRE???????????

I have changed truck, tractor, motor cycle, 4-Wheeler etc tires and have never run upon a beast like this, I cannot break the bead....

You guys have to tell me the secret!!

Thanks,
PuJo

I've never mounted or dismounted anything heavier than a bicycle tire and I haven't done any of those in decades, but I suspect your question would be easier to answer if what make/model tire you are having trouble dismounting from the rim was given rather than the tire you are planning on mounting on the rim.

I just pay the shop $5 to do tires like this.

But you have to beat the heck out of them.

Do you have a wood splitter? You can use it to break them. Have a front end loader? Or just cut them off with a grinder or sawzall.

You will likely need tools to put the new tires on too so take them to a tire shop.

Here is the cart with the new tires and my son getting ready to take it for the maiden voyage with his new tires...
