Use a jack [hyd. or jackall] on the tire and lift on the hitch of another tractor or something heavy if you have it off. The tire shops say it's easier to do left on the tractor but I haven't seen what they use other than a duck bill tire hammer. I'm not sure lube helps much breaking the bead but I saw a guy at a tire shop mount huge skidder tires. He used murphy's tire soap. Same company that makes wood products, It's really thick like mashed potatoes and comes in a bucket. He took a few handfulls and spread it all over the rim and tire. He pushed the first bead on with the crane on his truck. It was easy. The second bead he used about a 6 foot long tire iron and got the rim in. Made it look easy. Took him about 15 minutes at the most and the tire was a 12 or 16 ply. He had 4 of them to do. Dave
