I really like the new Ultima Tire and Trim Guard Plus (v2.0).

For me, I like Meg's Endurance. It's the most durable I've found, the glossiness is shiney (but not too shiney), and it's easy for me to apply. I'm too spastic when it comes to use a spray can or trigger and wind up coating part of my rims and the driveway. I do use Meg's Hot Shine spray for the inner wheel wells to dress them up.

I used Eagle 1 Wet Tire Shine. Doesn't brown the tires. Medium gloss, and I apply using shop towels. No sling. I have to admit that the Meguiars Insane tire shine looks really good, and I'm interested in trying that next. I'm a big fan of Meguiar's products.

Just put on some Opti-bond and I must say it looks like my new favorite. Just gotta see how it looks on other brands of tires.

Has anyone used No-Touch lately? Has it been reformulated? I bought a can of it to use in wheelwells,but I used it on the tires of my beater the last time I washed it.

I was impressed! The No-Touch left the tires with a rich black look that wasn't very shiny at all,and it looks perfect in wheelwells IMO.

This used to be a pretty low gloss productin the past,but they've amped up the shine a little without getting too blingy.

The best part is that it's a whopping $2.44 a can at Wally World!

the no touch foam is great, and works just as well as the AA tire foam...

I second that.

I use Hyper Dressing 4:1 for the wheel wells to shine them up.

Bought some 4 Star tire gel on sale @Danase. Nice look....

That's AA Tire Gel just applied. I like it a lot, it lasts quite awhile. I just applied that, but didn't really need to, I just wanted a little more shine. Before that it's been about two weeks since I last applied and it's rained a 3-4 times and I just washed it, and it still looked almost as good, jut a little less of the 'wet' look.

Sorry they're so big ^^.

Just bought some Megs NXT "Insane" just to try out. First impressions are..Wow, very glossy, deep black, almost looks like you've sprayed a clear coat on your tires. I'm curious to see what they look like after sitting all day/night and what kind of durability that shine will have after driving.

Also it is a little too shiny for my taste but I do have some clients that love the glossy look over the clean matte finish appearance. If it passes the fling test and durablilty is good, I'll add something to my arsenal.

Oh and I'm going to do the left side of the car with the Megs and the right with the 303 or CG's VHT (sample after purchase) to see how they hold up.
