warrior tire change

I am assuming you are having trouble breaking the bead. You need to order a bead breaker from James Lucky or Rocky Mountain ATV. Generally, you cannot break the bead on your first try. You have to keep working your way around the rim. I've had to go around the rim twice to finally get the bead to give. Soapy water helps.
If you are having trouble getting the tire off the rim, you need 3 tire spoons. It helps to have 1 short one and a couple of longer ones. Whatever you do, don't put the tire spoon anywhere but on the lip of the rims. It is tempting to put the spoon down on the inside of the rim but you will end up denting your rim. Practice on the front tires first since they are 2-3 times easier.
Good Luck,
