Rep Power: 344 Meguiars Endurance Tire Gel. Smells like grape bubble gum. Lasts a long time, just wear gloves when you apply it, cause it'll stick for a while.

Rep Power: 248 That's what's good about the Foam Sprays.. they wideness of the spray is enough to get onto the rubber only, maaybe a little on the rim but that can always be wiped off

Anything that turns the tires brown or washes off brown is bad, bad for your tires. The brown stuff, per Michelin, is their built in protector that is being destroyed by petroluem based products. Water based won't cause problems. 303 is h20 based.

Rep Power: 787 So no petroleum based products? I like meguiar's hot shine tire spray, but it only lasts a few days. The endurance I ALWAYS get spinoff onto the paint even if I nearly wipe everything off. Anything else you can get at the store?

Rep Power: 787 Dang. Almost everything has petrolleum distillates. I used to use meguiar's hot shine, and it doesn't say whether it has them or not.
To be safe, I bought No touch wet n' protect tire finish. I know it sounds kinda generic, but it's a spray and does NOT have stuff that will damage the tire. I sprayed and let settle for 15 mins. It's hard to explain, but the tire looks like it's brand new. Pure black, and you can rub your finger over it without taking the shine stuff off. It feels like a regular new tire. It doesn't look super shiny, but it makes the tire nice and black. I think I found my new product
