ABSTRACT:
The present invention is for a bead breaking tool which can be used in combination with various tire stripping stands and benches to break a tire bead before a tire is stripped from its rim. The tool has sidewall engaging legs which depress the sidewall of the tire, opening pockets between the rim and the tire into which rim engaging jaws can be inserted. Providing the pockets reduces the likelihood of damage to the tire or rim during bead breaking. The tool is effective in removing rims which have a safety rib such as is employed for many of the rims which are intended for use with low pressure tires such as the tires for All Terrain Vehicles.
