i’d like to think that just about any shop you take it to will tear that off if you’re paying them to mount a new tire.

Cutting is probably a bad idea because if you go a little too deep you mess up the part of the rim that the bead seals against. Only way I’d try to cut it was if I could wedge something between the wheel and the rubber.

Dremels tend to burn rubber. I’ve removed tires like these with a pair of heavy duty cutting dikes.

It will take you about 10 min to cut through it.

I guess I needed to state the obvious that you use a pry bar or something to hold the tire away will cutting / dremelling.
