recently did something similar, used pinch bars from bunnings about $20 each i think, you'll never bend them, are cheaper than "proper" tyre levers and dual purpose.

Just watch the sharp ends on the beads, bit of care and mine went great guns! (Got the idea off the beadlock article on Pirate)

bursons auto parts have 24" levers for around $10 each,I fitted 40" ground hawgs to 15x10" rims without any trouble.just make sure you use some soap.

go to a tyre shop mate

e.g beaurepairs, bridestone.

my old place sold 24" levers for about $25.00
