Carbon wheel newby seeks tire changing tips

Steve Hampsten just built me a new bike and as I was going whole hog, I went with Bora wheels and Rene Herse tires. All good, but one of these days I'll get a puncture in some out of the way place and I'm wondering what I need to know.

I can easily remove and replace Herse tires on contemporary alloy rims without using levers, which I would just as soon avoid. Will that be the case with the Boras? is there really anything special about the levers that come with them, or will Pedros, Schwalbe, etc do just as well or better?

I know, I know, pics or it didn't happen, but I can't figure out how to upload to the site.
