sometimes you can break the bead by placing the tire and rim under a tractor draw bar, or large truck, and place the foot of a lift all farm jack on the tire next to the rim. jack it up to place some pressure on it. and get out your sledge hammer.
if it breaks loose, flip over the rim and repeat.
More often than not, the inside rim has rusted, firmly holding the tire in place. if this is the case, you may not be able to save the tubes. a very stubborn tire will have to be cut open enough, (I use a chain saw) to get to the inner bead. I then cut the inner beads open from the inside with a die grinder, through all the wires. once the bead splits open, the tire will practically fall off.
once the tire is off, grind the old rust off. if you dont, the new tire will not want to come all the way out against the outer flanges. I usually use lots of dish soap and slick it up.
I would use new tubes. it's just too much work to have to redo the job!
