tire levers

Rim prying tools

Tire levers are small handheld tools used to pry a tire off its rim, especially on bicycles.

They're typically made of plastic or metal, with a curved end that hooks under the tire bead and a notched end that clips to a spoke to hold the tire open while you work: I always carry tire levers in my bike repair kit.
