use a wise
After doing my share of curseing and geting my fingers cut enough times trying to remove old sticking offroad tiers I made a set of grips that fits over the jav on a ordinary workbench wise. Its just a bracket that clamps around the head of the wise with a curved plate 30 cm long with(in my case) the same radius as a 17 inch rim.Let the air out. Open the wise, place your wheel between the two plates,about 3-4 mm from the rim and tighten the wise,once the rubber comes lose on that part simply open the wise rotate and tighten again. Works like a charm
Flats on the road are ofcourse still a pain in the ass
