  • Tire Cleaning

    Hi.Normaly I don't have this muck as my tire walls are normaly not left untreated for extended periods of time.
    I'm in the middle of removing the wheels,to give them a good clean and polish.
    The inner tire walls are very dirty as they don't get any attention,but I'd like to clean while I've got them off.
    Who has the best method for cleaning the brown muck off tires?

    A recent thread mentioned APC,Bleche white(don't know that one) and super degreaser. I can try and get APC or Super degreaser.

      I just rotated my tire and cleaned all the nasty brake dust and gunk. I sprayed them with water followed by some Super D and APC, that along with a good brush should do you just right sir.

        Okay.Thanks. Do you think APC will do the job without the super D?

          I think so. I use it 4:1 with a foaming sprayer and it has yet to let me down.

            I use Eagle 1 All Wheel/TIRE cleaner, works great and melts off any and all tire dressings and works on my clearcoated/painted wheels.

                Nick, when you use the super degreaser on the tires what kind of brush do you use to scrub with?

                  I use a standard yellow tire brush, I buy them at Lowes.

                    ok, cool. I have been using one from autozone and not really happy with it. Way too stiff

                        Here is another vote Eddie for apc or if they are really bad, super degreaser.
