Haha I bought this tire. It was a Pilot Road 4 Trail that's pretty much new and I really like these Michelin's and need a new front tire soon. At least I won't worry about scratching the rims up getting that tire off, so I suppose I could just take it over to Rosey Toes
Shane, get yourself a pair of spoons and dismount the tire yourself. It's not a difficult task, especially since the bead is already broken.

Yeah I had a pair of tire irons kicking around, but can't seem to find them. At least they're cheap.

Any tire machine I've ever seen/used grabs the outside of the rim so hub or no hub wouldn't matter.

Granted, I haven't seen many tire machines as I typically do it myself, but what I had in mind were the manual DIY setups a lot of people have:
Although in this case it doesn't matter about the rim at all, so spoons would work fine and no need to raise the wheel off the ground as no disc to hurt.

The top and bottom machines still grab the rim lip. The center bar is only to lever against when using the bead tool.Granted, I haven't seen many tire machines as I typically do it myself, but what I had in mind were the manual DIY setups a lot of people have:
