Need Help ASAP...unmounting ruined tires

I am about to take a bunch of stuff to the local recycling center for some extra cash. It includes a set of 4 lug aluminum mustang wheels, but I have to have the tires removed in order for them to accept them. How can I go about this? THe tires are junk and actually have been slit. Thanks! - Daniel

cut the bead and slip off the tire
use a heavy pair of diagonal cutters and work through the bead
the side plys are fabric so you can slit them easily and off comes the tire
