Hi Everyone!
I am looking for a good tire cleaner as the winter will be arriving soon.
I would like to keep up my tires on my daily use car.

I am also looking for a tire dressing that is shinny and something that does not spray all over the the car once applied,
Something that will dry and stay shiny.
Thanks,
Nick

AMAZING ROLL OFF Im the MAN

Jim uses Brown royal. I haven't tried it yet myself but his word is gold.
 
To clean tires: Amazing Roll Off or Meguiar's Super Degreaser. Meg's is a little cheaper.

Tire Dressing: Opti-Bond FTW

ARO, OPC, or APC+ for cleaning. For a somewhat shiny tire dressing I actually prefer Endurance.
 
Tire Dressing: PERL for the very best looks on tires. UT&TG or WGETS for most in durability but less black but a refined, non glossy finish. If you live in a region that rains every day the looks will go down with PERL after a few rains so for that situation you might try UT&TG instead but you will compromise initial looks for longer term durability. UT&TG, WG ETS, and PERL can all be used and in fact excel at other applications beyond tires.

Ultima Trim and Tire Guard or Wolfgang ETS: http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/product-reviews/37964-review-wolfgang-exterior-trim-sealant.html
 
I use ain old cheap bleech white. Now labeled under Black Magic but is the same stuff. I have RWL Pirellis on my truck and it gets them super clean. Brown Royal works pretty good too. Not a fan of ARO... and to me it smells like bleech white only not as strong. For dressing I like Opti Bond diluted. I have some PERL and am looking forward to try it.
 
Any APC 1:15+stiff bristle brush will clean tires, then wipe down with a terry cloth towel and let it dry. I use purple power 1:5 or simple green 1:15. just depends whats handy. It may take a few going overs to really clean tires.

I like megs endurance shine. Its very shinny for 3-4 days then still shines for a week and then becomes more mantle for week 2-3. It doesn't stand up to rain storms. But with decent weather you can get 2-3 weeks of good looks easy. It doesn't sling at all either.

Use the UTTG for protecting the wheels! No question that is the most durable wheel protectant imo short of only the best coatings.
