    I have only done that with motorcyle tires, I think most car/truck tires may have too stiff of a bead to do this manually.

    Well I'd start with purchasing new wiper blades and attempting to gas up the vehicle. With a little luck not only your tires be removed from the rims, you should also have managed to reupholster your seats.
