I first did this with 4 motorcycle tires. Yesterday I needed an old car tire removed before shipping. The shops tire machine is getting moved to a new shop and I didn’t feel like driving to my regular mechanic. I first cut the tire completely around the sidewall. Then made a notch in the rubber to the bead. Used the pair of box cutters in the pic to cut the bead. The whole process took 5 minutes.

I had to cut spokes out of 4 motorcycle wheels so the box cutter was already purchased. I’m sure you could do it with a cut off wheel but in my hands, a manual tool is safer.
