Anyone know a cheaper way to get a tyre off my rim (or 2 tyres off two rims?)

I have a manual tyre changer at home, you're welcome to come over.

Edit: a grinder also works but its really messy

High lift under a heavy car right near the bead to break it. The tyre leavers to get it off

I bought myself a manual changer when I got 2 new sets of Mickey Thompson tires.
