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! Roger R

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. ------------------ Dan Parmelee TheContourGuy@aol.com95 SE ATX KKM 24V HIGH OUTPUT badging SVT E0 wheels/tires yellow calipers CEG stickers OF's TH fix HyperWhite high beams CoolBlue low beams drilled metal pedals faux metal grille removed hoodliner 01 Infiniti I30t 95 Ford Windstar LX http://hometown.aol.com/thecontourguy/contour.html

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.
It's more fun to drive a slow car fast than it is to drive a fast car slow.
