Weird problem with my tires and washes

[calvin]

At first I thought the brown rust colored stains were coming from the wheels finally getting REALLY clean with the armoral wheel cleaner + the snowfoam but I later realized it was coming from my TIRES!



Anyone know what could be causing this? I don`t use the AA on the tires but the snowfoam does get on them and this brown stuff runs off and will even stain the driveway unless I hit it with a degreaser and wash it down.

could be old dressing, or just road gunk from driving.

It`s happened the last half dozen times since I started snowfoaming. I live in FL so idk how much gunk would be on there.



I`ve used Eimann shampoo (Eimann Fabrik Gentle Shampoo (http://www.properautocare.com/ei```esh.html)), 3d snowfoam, and meg`s gold class, also meg`s 00 wash all with the same result.



Just want to ensure I`m not damaging/drying out the tires.
