OK, I'm not about to go buy this stuff, but what do you guys think. The latest Canadian Tire flyer has this tire shine product that tints the tire sort of red, blue, or silver in the sunlight. Just when I thought I'd seen it all.

I've seen this stuff too and I think its a good way to make it onto www.BEATERz.com Its kinda weird, why would you want the colored tires, maybe to go with your colored tread? I don't know!

BFGoodrich Scorcher T/A drag radials. Have colored tread strips. Leaves colored strips when you peel out and colored smoke. Looks lame as all hell.

For tire shine, I recommend Black Magic's tire wet. Smells like cherrys and looks shiny without looking fake. Doesn't streak, and not too expensive.

Meguiar's Endurance Gel all the way. Goes on
quickly, leaves a matte finish that doesn't
look cheesy, and lasts a good two weeks even
with rain. Try that with the silicone sprays.

Let's all be sensitive to each other here. Some of us may be waiting for dayglo pink windshield wipers to come back in style.

I personally like ArmorAll's low gloss dressing.
