Plasti-Dip again...sorry :)
I detailed my car the other day and did not like the dullness of the plastidipped side spears, so I hit them with some tire dressing and, voila, they now look much blacker, and not so dusty looking. Don't ask me for pics...just do it!

You know, I was detailing mine on Sunday and I was curious how the "Back To Black" stuff I got would work. To be honest I was just a bit lazy to try a test spot on the lowest part of the valance, but now I may have to try it.

pics would be worthless because I don't have a before pic...like I said, just do it...it is rubber, tires are rubber, tires get dusty and dingy, plastidip gets dusty and dingy, tires look better all shined up, plastidip looks better all shined up....you can picture it in your head if you've never seen a cleaned up tire.

I asked this question on the bigger PlastiDip thread. I am about to do my wheels and was curious what happens when you dress your tires and get it on the plastidip. I'm doing the targa and halo as well and was gonna use the glossifier but maybe tire shine will be fine.
