I remove the tire, lay flat on the ground, deflate the tire so I can get behind the clips easier, and they pop right off. Also much easier to reinstall this way as well.

This is what I have done as well...you maybe able to do it without deflating but I had to at least take the tires off the car and compress in a couple of different area's to get them clipped. If you have NOS trim rings its easier than the repops.
