I washed it yesterday and decided to go out for a little Sunday drive today. It is amazing how dirty it gets in just a few miles.

That looks great in the sun!

I've just started using Chemical Guys Tire Foam, and so far, so good. I let it dry for about 15 minutes before I put the car away after washing. I think I prefer it over the Mother's and Meguair's tire shine I've used prior.

Do you wipe your tire shine after? If I just spray it on and don't wipe, the tires look wet lol. But with a little wipe, it gets more of a matte appearance.

Really like the Turtle Wax Graphene Tire shine. Lasts for a few weeks, and easy to apply.

I use 303. Whatever you get, I don't recommend anything silicone based or gel based.

This was a day after a wash and using 303. Natural shine and is dry to the touch.

Last night went with a buddy he took delivery of his Challenger Hellcat brand new $11k below msrp. He sold is 392 WideBody Charger. But man these Hellcats are insane.The seats cushion feels like a sofa.

Beautiful!

And you're right, the seats are awesome in those. I was tempted many times to buy one, but couldn't see myself in a Dodge lol. I'm a Corvette guy!

^^ The $11k off of msrp was what made him sell the 392 ScatPack & immediately buy the Hellcat. This was all within 2 days lol
