I can certainly help you sort this Vix, although I'm not sure exactly what you have ordered. You can normally push the bearings out without the tool, however I do have the old Salomon universal skate tool which has a bearing puller. I also reckon you need a plate and small hammer to tap the new bearings firmly into the wheel.
I would have thought to achieve the conventional rocker on your skates, you would have needed just a 4mm smaller wheel at the front and rear of each of your frames, with bearings and spacers to make change over easier. Maybe you have gone for a complete set so you can keep them as a set just for slalom? This does however mean changing eight wheels over rather than four.
