Joe posted a tool number for hf a year or so ago. I second guessed as i didnt know what it looked like. Bought one from a local equip supply place for 30 or 40 bucks. Once in hand the 15 dollar hf model is exactly same shape.
Go slow as you dont want to bend the ring. Regular rim was easy. Skinny ring was tougher as the bead lock has stumped me. That set will eventually go to a tire shop.
I havent yet reassembled and aired up a wheel yet. Have to think through the risk first.
