my biggest pet peeve is tire shine and or/armoral. Wash the tires and let them be. my 2 cents anyhow.

I clean the rims and tires, then shine the tires, each time I wash the car.

The car just looks better with shiny tires.

To OP. I suggest you use the white gel kind of tire shine, as opposed to the clear spray kind. It lasts a good week or two. (Unfortunately it rarely goes more than three days without raining where I am from, so I don't know how long it actually lasts)

no touch seriously wet is the best tire shine i've ever used


it last forever and is super shiny.

you will not regret it

the key to a good long lasting shine is to use tire cleaner before applying tire shine.
