I assume you are talking about rear tires. Depends on how badly the tire is rusted to the wheel and if they are loaded or not. I use a homemade slide hammer type bead breaker that usually works pretty well. I leave the wheels on the tractor, a lot less work and gravity will help you. By "hanging" the tire on the wheel the weight of the tire will help it back on. Once the bead is broken loose just a couple of tire irons and a 3# hammer is all you need. I use the hammer to put the tire back on the wheel, it has less chance of pinching a tube. This has worked for me on tires up to 16.9x30 or 13.6x38. Good luck, Paul
