Alright, watched all the Redneck ways to break the bead and change the tires out. Looking to hear what you guys have to say ... I have standard tools and tire spoons at the house, nothing fancy, how do you break the beads???

Take them to a tire shop. ;D
Or remove the valve core, lay the tire down on the ground, drive over the atv tire with the front tire of an automobile keeping as close to the rim as possible. Have someone there to spin the atv rim and tire to work your way around the bead. Repeat as necessary to unseat the bead.

Man thats funny! I thought I was the only one who did that. I've got a little Honda civic and with the driver door open, I can see right where I'm putting the wheel. Sometimes I spray some WD-40 or something like that all around the rim 2 or 3 times in a day period, and really let it soak in. This seems to help if they've been on a long time. But yes, tire shop is always easiest.

Make your life easy and take them to Walmart. 3 bucks off + 3 bucks on x 4 = 24 bucks and 1 hour to shop.
