Omey, haha... no tire shine for me. none of my cars get that. that stuff dries out tires if you don't constantly apply it, did you know that? tires become dependant on it... then eventually they start cracking.
as for the wheels, yes, i love mine! they really do look awesome on a black car. the polished lip gives off a nice glow of red from the calipers too at certain angles. i've been told that my car is very devilish looking. my only problem with the wheels, they are a pita to clean b/c of the smaller spokes and grooves... my pads in front make a lot of dust, and it just seems to cake itself on the wheels...other then that, i love em!

That is true for armor all & silicone lubricant, but not of Tire Wet, it keeps the tires looking new for a VERY long time and does not dry out the tires. you should give it a shot.
May I suggest Nu-finish on the wheels, its like super wheel wax, lasts a VERY long time and it makes sure that nothing sticks to the wheels themselves, the brake just comes right off in one wipe, however when you apply you have to make sure the wheels are SUPER DUPER clean (i usually do 3-4 coats when i buy brand new wheels, keeps them looking new forever (reapply once a year).
Omey, i'll have to try those products sometime!!! its winter in my neck of the woods so its cold out... LOL... i do have a garage heater, gf just got it for me as an early thanksgiving. i gotta try that out now i guess! LOL
thanks for the heads up on that !
