Turtle wax tire wax is all I use. I even use it on my Mercedes' rubber bumpers! laugh Long lasting, fair price, easy to control the shine factor.

Be sure to use a gel! The sprays get all over the wheels and make them(wheels) dust magnets! Use a good gel and cut one of those cheap yellow sponges from the auto parts store up into 4 pieces and use it as an applicator. I tried Eagle one swipes but they are no good IMHO. I use Black Magic tire gel(No tire tint here BTW wink , got it as a gift for my BD) currently, but will be switching back to Meguires once the bottle is empty.

I like the Meguiar's Gold Class Endurance too. I get the Medium gloss, I don't like them shinier than my wheels. smile

same here! looks great, lasts long. if your local store only carries high gloss, its ok...just go with a thinner light coat to get the same effect.



my tires still look great, even after i put it on well over a month ago.

The best stuff I've used is Zaino Z-10. Looks flat with one coat. The more you put on it gets shinier. I lasts a while also.

I usually use either blue or silver tire tint. I love the way they look on my black car
