Wikipedia
Tire iron
A tire iron (also tire lever or tire spoon) is a specialized metal tool used in working with tires. Tire irons have not been in common use for automobile tires since the shift to the use of tubeless tires in the late 1950s. Bicycle tire irons are still in use for those tires which have a separate inner tube, and can have a hooked C-shape cut into one end of the iron so that it may be hooked on a bicycle spoke to hold it in place.

tire iron
A tire iron, also known as a tire lever, is a tool primarily used for changing tires on vehicles. It traditionally has one end that is flattened and slightly curved to easily fit between the tire and the wheel rim, while the other end is typically used as a handle or may also be outfitted with various sockets for removing lug nuts. Some modern versions have a pry bar on one end and a socket wrench on the other. They are typically made of metal for durability.
