Hi Robert,
If as I suspect, they are Ferret wheels, then there should be a runflat bead spacer fitted, which will mean you will not be able to push the beads away from the rim very easily. We used to have a large machine with a rising platform that centred on the hole in the rim and three or four arms which you could control to push down on the bead, then slip under the rim forcing it up away from the tyre. Are the rims alloy?
