Same here, Nothing to be scared of really. You can also slide a tire iron through the holes on the rim so the ends cover the ring, then lay it with the ring down and slide it under the vehicle. Big safety plus is a air hose that is long enough that you can stand back 10 feet or so from wheel. The money maker is taking them off proper. Make sure that the beads are pushed all the way past the ring all the way around and work them off in small bites. The rings are easy to spring which makes them dangerous. Just don't get careless.
