never try to cut them off. I've seen people struggle with that on atv tires that are fugged. To reseat, soapy water on the tires, remove valve core, and air up, should pop right away. I've heard of people using large C-clamps to break the beads. The best way is what is easiest for you. Keep trying till you find whats right.
