I'm having a hard time getting the tire off this bike.
Any help is very much appreciated.
If you can include pictures that would be great...
I'm brand new to bike maintenance.

I've only changed a tire once and it's not as bad as some people say it is. Here's some links i found useful when i did mine.

I used the video tips mostly. Just watch it a few times to make sure you get all the tips. If you have a bench vise try to find a piece of pipe around the size of the axle and put it in the vise and put the hub over it to hold the wheel.
Or did you mean getting the wheel of the bike.

I mean I got the four small nuts off the left side but I can't get the other side off where the brake is attached.
The wheel is still connected to the bike.

You have to unscrew the axle after removing the four nuts. It threads into the other side (caliper side).
Go to page 94 of the manual (page 103 in the Adobe reader)

Axle is torqued to 54 ft lbs page 95 of manual (104 in Adobe reader)
You might want to save the manual to your computer..
