I love the Armor All Tire Foam, Bounty Hunter got me hooked on it. You just spray it on and walk away, it's easy to use and lasts awhile, I did notice that it will come off quicker with wet weather, but I'm assuming all tire dressings are that way.

i like the foam stuff as well. i do 2 coats with that too. the only problem with the foam is the overspray that may get onto your rims. then the foam acts like a magnet for dirt. if ya want something easy that looks good - tire foam is the way to go. also, you can buy the STP tire foam at wal mart for like $2.25 a can. thats what ive been using the last year or so.

OK ... before I get blasted and laughed at ... TRY IT!

The old method before there were $10 bottles of tire goo ... but not quite as far back as when our tires were still stone or rock.

Get yourself a bottle of $1 Dawn Dish Soap or whatever you like that is clear, not white.... (no joke)

When you are finished with your car, and everything is all dried off ... pour some in the palm of your hand and rub it around the tire, make sure to get close to the rims and over the edge toward the tread. (I am not kidding! Quit laughing!!)

Wipe up any that you got on the edge of the rims. Let it dry. Like overnight.

When it does get dirty, the soap keeps the dirt from settling in, and when it rains (unless its a turd-floater) it hangs in there pretty well.

In dry weather, it is very glossy -- and it is not sticky to attract dirt.

Yeah, but it's a great price -- if you like it.
And if you don't like it, stick that Dawn under the kitchen sink and nothing is lost! LOL!

... and it was OLD SCHOOL wayyyy back when I learned it as a kid.

I use that on my work truck and on Michelle's trailblazer, but I don't use it on my Mustang because I do not like the way it tends to run down on the wheels as it's drying.

It's probably not a big deal on stock wheels, but I imagine it's not the best thing to put on chrome wheels.

man ive got a full bottle of this stuff at my house. i used it once on my t-bird and it slung off and stained my paint. i like using the meguires hot shine tire spray(not foam). the can has a 3 way adjustable nozzle for low to tall profile tires. gives a really good wet look shine. if i dont get that i get the dupont with teflon.
