What's the best tire shine?

Looking for a tire shine that actually does what it promises.

I like vinylex from Lexol. It has UV protection, shines the tires nicely, and doesn't build up like the silicone products.

I didnt like either of those because they are too glossy and they tend to sling off onto your fenders.

I like Meguiar's Gold Class™ Endurance. Not the High Gloss unless you REALLy like shiny tires. The key is in the application.

Not answering your question, but I just scrub mine well with a medium-stiff brush; the maker calls it a grill and wheel brush, but I use it on the tires as well.
