I've also seen a photo of a base for a hi-lift jack that had an edge on it for bead breaking a tire. Can't find details though.

EDIT: Found it. Warning - terrible site comprised of PDFs.

I always drive over the tire just off the rim to break them (you need 4 tires to do it this way).

Some people do it even with a regular bottle jack.

It's a simple, yet good idea I guess. I wonder if they sell a lot ? Or maybe just gave the idea to everyone to do it their own way ?
