Re: Best Tire Dressing? (new Member)
I use EagleOne with the tire swipes they make and have served me well. The swipe minimizes or eliminates the "slinging" of the product. Even after a rain when it washes it off, the tire still looks good. As mentioned above, also easy to find and relatively cheap for the results

Re: Best Tire Dressing? (new Member)
I recommend the Duragloss Wet Look tire dressing, although at $10 a bottle it's too expensive IMO. I love the product, but I most likely will not buy it again. I just don't want to spend that much for tire dressing and I'm sure there are alternatives that will work almost as well for half the cost. I'm not a high shine/bling tire person, but this dressing looks great and lasts awhile, once the initial shine goes away. Tire dressings vary from tire to tire so while it may look good on your tires, it might not be to your liking on another set of tires. I rate the DG Wet Look dressing higher in my book because in my experience it has worked more consistently across the board of different tire manufacturers.
AA Extreme Tire shine is on my list of items to eventually try out and it gets plenty of good recommendations on here. I'd try that first before buying a more expensive dressing.

Re: Best Tire Dressing? (new Member)
I like the way 303 works on tires. I have had my problems with the AA gel, but I am going to put my bottle back into use and see how I like it this time.

after i apply and spread the tire dressing, i come back with the leaf blower and it not only dries it quicker, it helps rid of any dressing that may be in the left in the tread...

Re: Best Tire Dressing? (new Member)
I like Meguiar's NXT Tech Insane Shine Tire Spray. Looks very wet & shiney. Lasts long, and does a decent job repelling dust. Very good at repelling water.
Meguiar's High Endurance, on the other hand, was like a dust magnet on my tires. It isn't shiney, either.

Re: Best Tire Dressing? (new Member)
high bling = lots of shine...low sling = not that much or no run off of the product from the tires to your doors, bumper, etc from driving after putting the tire shine on

Very poor durability, but looks great. I only like to put one coat because I don't like it to look too glossy, so one is enough for me.
