Default Beadbreaking again

On a lot of passenger car rims you will have a heck of a time stuffing
a tube in with both beads in the center of the rim. On many it will be
all but impossible.


I may not be remembering correctly, but believe I have done it. I do
remember getting scrapes on my hands. I might have gotten one bead
off the rim using a couple of large screwdrivers and a prybar. I need
three bars to get a bead off a rim. Working on tires is a big pain,
but I used to live ten miles from anywhere with a tire shop.
