A portable apparatus is provided for dislodging a tire bead from the bead seat of a wheel rim of a vehicle. The apparatus includes a pair of telescoping tubes (12, 14) which carry wheel rim engaging clamps (16, 18) at opposing outer ends of the tubes. The telescoping tubes are fixedly adjustable which allows the clamps to engage diametrically opposite portions of the wheel rim and to be tightened in place. A bead breaker foot (26) is carried at the outer end of tube (12) adjacent to engaging clamp (16). The breaker foot is movable and can be adjusted downwardly to break the tire away from the wheel rim.
