Drive the tractor next to a solid pole or post. Jack up the wheel next to the post so it can be turned freely. Use a handyman jack with the base against the tire right next to the rim. Put the jaw of the jack against the pole. Starting working the jack and this will push the bead of the tire away from the rim. As the tire is pushed away from the rim keep working the wheel around until you have loosened the tire all the way around the rim. Then put your your jack on the inside of the rim and use your drawbar to brace the jaw of the jack. Repeat the same thing
as you did on the outside of the wheel. After getting both sides of the tire loose pull the outer bead off the wheel with a tire iron then remove the tube. This has always worked for me.
