I can normally change tyres with levers, but not break the beads. I built a simple home made bead breaker and it has always done the trick on old car type tyres. Modern car tyres get dome at the tyre shop, they are much more difficult, especially the low profile stuff.

I'll take a snap of the bead breaker, and post it here.
