Guys I was wondering what everyone has been using to shine their tires with. What's the best stuff out there? What stuff will hold a shine the longest? Repels rain/dirt the best, etc. ? BTW I like that shiny "wet" look on my tires if possible.

Meguiars Gold Class Endurance or Gold Class Endurance High Gloss if you like the shine. Hand's down da bomb. Lasts a long time.

One of the two should be.. just make sure to wipe off the excess afterwards -- whatever the directions say. Don't want it slinging all over your paint.
I like Turtle Wax Tire Wax - it's shiney, but not too shiney, about perfect for what I like. Had to try a few of them (including Endurance which I hated) before I found something I liked. Didn't see it at my last trip to the parts store though  Still on their website, so I'll have to look harder when my bottle is empty.

i use the eagle one but you have to use the applicator since its pretty messy. havent tried the meguires yet although meguires rocks with everything else but the eagle one is very nice too.

Meguiars Endurance gel is what I've found that works best and lasts the longest. They offer a regular and a high gloss forumla. The high gloss formula is the color of grape kool-aid and the regular stuff is a lavender color and comes in a black bottle. Well worth it, guaranteed

Well thanks everyone, I picked up some Endurance hi-gloss and am looking forward to using it, along with some NXT  I had the Eagle One "Wet" stuff before, and found it to be pretty crappy. Only lasts for maybe two days if it DOSENT rain.
