2017 exl 28k. I’m very fussy when it comes to keeping my cars clean. At 28k miles, you would have a hard time distinguishing my car from a brand new one. I keep my paint spot less and it’s as smooth as ice. I swear by turtle wax ice as the car self dries after 40 mph. Under the hood no dirt and grime and wheel dishes that you can eat off of. But I have never used tire shine because they attract so much dirt on the wheels and tires. So I’m wondering if any of you have found a product to makes the tires look darker without them being super shiney or glossy. I’ve tried all types of tire shine products and I’ve tried to remove as much excess as possible but they still attract dirt.

I have never found a product that lasts more than a day or two. I'm sure there are a ton of products people like, but as you said, they get dirty pretty fast.

I recommend driving through deep powder snow -- it scrubs the dirt off of the rubber sidewalls and keeps 'em looking GOOD!

Come on by and I'll let you clean your tires in my driveways then you can play with a snow shovel -- SO much fun!

Contact me for available times...YOUR tire sidewalls will THANK YOU!

I use 303 Aerospace Protectant on my cars, motorhome and tractors. It doesn't attract dirt, makes the tires look new without that over shine some products do, and indications are it protection against harmful UV rays. I agree with your recommendation for using Turtle Wax Ice.

Turtle was ice is amazing and the spray bottle detailed is great for glass and I think works better then rain x

I've been using Meguiar's Hyper Dressing for years on my tires at one part H.D. to three parts water. Looks pretty much like a new tire, lasts ~4 weeks. Works great on the black trim on my CRV too. I apply it with a 3" paint brush. Haven't tried it on leather yet but I'm planning to after watching this video.

Meguiar's G7516 Endurance Tire Gel is the best I've found so far. Lasts a long time, doesn't sling off the tire. I use a sponge applicator to apply, only takes 1-2 min per tire after I wash the car.

Surf City Garage Beyond Black Tire Pro.
Very similar to the product that Michelin used to have. Nice satin look.
(I spray it into a bowl and apply with a small paint brush)

+1 on the 303 for door gaskets. Two good coats and I don't have to re-do for about 5 yrs.

I agree and it smells so good.

I agree and it smells so good.

Does it smell like grapes?

Does it smell like grapes?

Yep! Whenever I use it I think of peanut butter and bread.

It's probably the new and improved version of Hyper Dressing. Great stuff.

Meguiars endurance tyre gel, matt finish, does not stand out too much, longer lasting as compared to the spray cans.

303 makes good products - I use 303 on motorhome tires fr the UV protection but like the clean black look nice overly shiney.
Fine mist & wipe it tends to shed dirt & grime a Plus
Also work great on black rubber & plastic trim.
