Default Advice on Taking Tires off Rims

What's the easiest way to take tires off wheels without a pneumatic press? I used to just do it with 2 pry bars but for some reason these blizzaks just don't want to come off!!

I don't care about the tires at all so if you suggest cutting them off that's fine too

cutting tires off wheels takes forever and eats up blades. just ask me, jeff, jon and marcus. air tools, sawz all, etc. takes forever and is not worth it. you spend more on blades then on paying a shop to remove them. or just go to nick for free.
