Yep, many tires for many years. Used a curved lip tire iron and a big old screwdriver to pry tires off and on wheel and a small car for a bead breaker; put tire/wheel under side of car and with base of a jack on the tire I jacked until it popped.

I've been told it's pretty difficult to break the bead, but the youtube people make it seem so easy. What did you use for lubrication?
