I generally use a small strait blade screwdriver.
Back when I was 4-wheeling a lot I had 4 clamp on air chucks to make it quicker...

Those factory wheels are beadlock looking, but they aren't actually beadlocks.
(Beadlock wheels are actually illegal on the street.)
So, treat them the same as any regular wheel.
