Best way to remove a tire that's really stuck on the beads?

The wheels that came with this mini bike cleaned up nicely. I was told the Bonanza kidney bean wheel is very desirable and I'll be listing both in the General Classified section. I would like to trade for 2 matching 6'' aluminum wheels in good condition.

Those look very nice. What did you use to clean them?

I cleaned them in an aqueous solvent then lightly with glass beads.

What did you add to the water? Dawn dish washing detergent?

A 120 degree heated industrial solvent tank using a cleaner like Simple Green.

a good tire lube we use at the truck shop is murphys oil soap. vegi based soap that doesn't react with the rubber and is slippery as ice.
