@DezB OK what I'm about to suggest may be total nosense as I don't have one of those tools to try but, after looking at the pictures I did wonder if there may be an alternative way to use it with too fat tyres. As in, put the hooked end through the spokes and hook it onto the opposite side rim while using the slotted end to push the bead up and over the rim rather than pull it from the top. Is that worth a try?

"My favorite recent bike tool is a Park Tool spoke wrench for my Mavic wheels (fancy Mavic wheels have daft nipples). Its at least 47 times better than the shitty plastic tools that came with the wheels."
That's bloody good to know as one of these just arrived today!
I've got one of those tyre jack levers, modern road tyres / rims seem to be so much tighter now they're all tubeless compatible, a lot easier than using tyre levers and no chance of pinching the inner tube.
