Default Best Tire Dressing

I'm sure this has been discussed, but with the winter season almost over, we all look forward to sunny days in the driveway.

I can't seem to find a good tire dressing. I've always used Zaino on my cars and I use the Zaino tire dressing. It looks ooookay, black, but a dull sheen. The dressing dries and doesn't throw oil, but its not brilliant.

When I purchased my '09 last summer, the dealer put a really shiny dressing on the tires, but they weren't oily.

Many of the major over-the-counter tire dressings I've tried give you a wet look, but they throw oil all over the side of the car. Some of the dressings over time make the black turn a dark brown...ugh!

Anybody want to recommend a dressing that gives a great shine, stays black and isn't oily!

PS: DETAIL TIP spray the tire dressing into the wheelwell black plastic liners, makes the car look new.

Be careful with chemicals near the carbon ceramic rotors! they don't like it and shiny tires aren't worth risking any braking problems

I always used this stuff. Makes the tires look very wet with a deep black shine for 2-3 weeks, depending on weather.
