I use Meguiar's NXT Generation Insane Shine Tire Coating http://www.meguiarsdirect.com/produc...?T1=MEG+G13115
It lasts a really long time, doesn't attract dirt, and imo looks really good.

The Armorall stuff works awesome, but I prefer black magic.

Granted I havn't driven my car in quite some time (mainly because of the transmission) but the tires are still shiny 4 months later.

I'm currently using this as well. I like the results because the applicator really lets you drive the product into the rubber and remove the excess so the shine really pops without looking overly greasy.

I'll give the aerosol Meguires a try when this runs out just to compare.

+1 to the Black magic and Meguiars, with the applicator pads. I find anything thinner than a gel goes all over the car as soon as I leave the driveway.

I've had very good luck with it and a good plus is it smells like grapes when you're putting it on!

This is what I use. It lasts ALOT longer than the regular ole Black Magic or whatever tire wet.

If I'm cleaning up a beater or something that doesn't have nice wheels I like to use the aerosol spray cans. If its MY car I prefer to use a gel as to not get overspray on the wheels.

So the Meguairs Gold Class High Endurance tire gel does not brown the tires?

I use black magic matte finish tire shine usually because I don't like my tires to look clear coated.. that's unnatural. The matte finish makes the tires dark black, doesn't sling, and isn't gross and sloppy like all the tire shines I've used.
