That's what those pneumatic tire dismounting stands are for at tire shops. If you're doing it by hand and don't care about the tire any more, you can use a heavy screwdriver and a big (heavy) hammer (not a claw hammer - a small sledge hammer) and smack the bead to break it loose. If you want to save the tire, use a short piece of 2 x 4 and a big hammer (that sledge). The wood won't damage the bead. But if it's seized, the rubber may tear away from the tire and remain stuck to the rim. It may help to apply a bit of dilute soap to the bead, but it may not, too. There is an "economy" approach that might work for you. A lot of self-serv gas stations are working out of what used to be "filling stations" with attached auto repair bays. And a lot of them still have the bead breaking equipment still there. You may be able to get a "discount" by asking them to dismount the tire for you as opposed going to a full service tire shop. Good luck.
Tires off the rim, or the tire and rim off the bike?
Some basic car knowledge here: - the tire, the rubber donut, sits on a rim - the rim is then bolted to either a brake drum, a brake rotor or possibly a hub. You can't take a tire off the axle, as it isn't attached to it. You can take a tire off the rim, you can take a rim off a brake drum or a hub. And you can take a brake drum or a hub off an axle. Let us know which it is.
1. take the tire and rim off. 2. take the pads off. 3. install new ones. 4. put the tire and rim bake on.
Rim off set is the space from the back side to wher the rim. Mates /bolts up to the roter to find yours take the tire off lay a 2x4 on the rim not the tire tape measuredown from the back side.

Take the tire and the rim to a tire shop. It requires special equipment to properly replace the tire and balance the rim.
you missed a critical NOUN. Tire off of what. the car the rim (wheel) the axle. what?
With a great deal of difficulty. If it's tubeless you have to use a big C-clamp to get one bead to break off the rim by pulling the tire together at the bead. Then pry the tire off, and put the tire over the rim and put the C-Clamp over the tire and rim and pull off the tire still stuck to the other bead. Then pull the remaining tire over the rim. I wish I could illustrate but hopefully my expanation works. It's a fight. Getting it back on is worse.
you have to take off your rim and tire, and your caliper.
if the tire is on the rim with no air. use some soap and water to lube up the bead of the tire and send a good burst of air. if this does not work take it to a local tire center to be beaded up. should be free.
Leave the nails in the tire. Take it to a tire store and they can do a professional repair after taking the tire off of its rim. This is usually not an expensive experience when the tire can be repaired.
take out the five bolts located on the center of the rim and pull it off...
