I have found that Turtle Wax's Wet'n'Black works the best.The shine on your tires will last a long time. You can buy special tire foam applicators just for dressing your tires. Just make sure you spray it on the foam applicator away from the car and not directly on the tire. I use a latex glove when applying to tires for easy clean up. Let the dressing sit on the tires for an hour before moving car for best results.

Definitely Adam's VRT. My SUV has tires that extend past the wheel wells and VRT is the only product I've tried that doesn't splatter the product on the vehicle.

What happens if you get a bit of the product on your paint? I use the Meguiar's mentioned earlier in this thread and I spray it right on the tires, but quickly wipe off any excess and then I wipe any that happened to get on my car or rims with a soft cloth and detailing spray.

I'm pretty certain the Junkman stated in previous videos and write ups that tire shine products such as meguiars and armor all that sling off and are silicon based are both bad for your tires and will dull your paint over time. I have personally used both meguiars and armor all and always hated them because of the brown effect on the rubber and the sling. In my experience with many different tire products Adam's Super VRT is the only way to go when it comes to a tire care.

+ 1 with Adams super vrt
Simply apply it with a foam applicator ( no mess at all)

. it's completely dry and does not sling on to your paint
