piece of carpet on the ground and a couple tire irons and a couple pieces of leather is all you need. You can break the bead in a vise among several other ways. I know how to make a home made lever type bead breaker too. Put the leather between the rim and the tire iron to prevent marking the rim. When installing the 2nd bead if the tire is a tube type partly inflate the tube, this will prevent pinching it.
I have a big rim clamp tire machine with a plastic head that I use. Harbor Freight sells a manual tire machine cheap.
Harbor Freight used to sell one like the one in this

Harbor Freight machine with motorcycle adapter Harbor Freight machine Can't find the adapter on the site.
