I did that a lot in high school and college. But with a manual bead breaker. It had maybe a 3-4:1 lever arm and a 3" shoe that fit up against the rim, and it pushed the tire clear down into the drop center. I would think faking that with some home-made jury rig (under the edge of a workbench?) would be better than driving a car around.
A crow bar is not a tire iron, those have a rounded tip. Using them is similar to a bicycle tire — don't take too big a bite each time, protect any gain.
What's interesting is putting a narrow tire on a wide rim (for that eco profile with your Moons). I've seen a couple different techniques.
