It's basically a tire dressing, but claims to be better. It appears to be better so far, but I've only had it a week. I started a thread to review it here:

Now you can drive in reverse when you get bored!
Haha ya, maybe I should make a toggle switch so whenever someone is riding my a** I can put a spot light on them :D

You got a point there. There are times I wanted to do that, but I think it's a REALLY BAD idea and DEADLY. Please don't let the into your head :smile (2):
Spent 3 hours last night waxing my 24's, cleaning my 20's and putting/removing/storing my wheels. I torqued my adapters to 100 ft-lbs and my wheels to 90 ft-lbs or torque vs 80 ft-lbs recommended for OEM wheels to be on the safe side. I check both my adapters and wheels after 5,000 miles. Gives me an excuse to take the wheels off to clean the barrels.
I also wax the inside of the barrels, makes cleaning the brake dust easy.
Funny thing too, is that after my test drive to ensure TPMS reads, I found that I no longer rub at all, even at full turns! It was late, but I think it has to a plastic piece in the wheel well missing a plastic push clip that I put in when I put my winter wheels on. No rub on full turns! I'll have to test again in a parking lot to see if I wasn't just dreaming.
Also, as a FYI, here is what I do for spacer/adapter installs:
1) use a stick to push down the brake pedal and push the seat forward so I can torque the adapters.
2) always do the star motion to tighten.
3) when putting the wheel on, torque to spec when wheel is OFF the ground. This 100% ensures centering of the wheel (if you have hub centric) and lug nuts.
4) I re-check torque when wheel is on ground.
Good time to clean brake calipers too.
24's vs 20's, pictures are dull because I'm waiting for the wax to dry before I polish it.
Finally done at 1 AM

Ha, nice.
I really went through buyers remorse on the 24's, going through the headache of fitment of wheels, tires and the 24's just being too big. I finally got the 24's to work and would now always go 24 if I can get enough sidewall.
I'm in the search for 21's, so I can go 21's in the winter and 24's in the summer. I blame Lance.
too bad it doesnt shine down. bright like crazy tho
Ahh nice looking wheel Ed.
Chris, stop by tonight to swap out of your winter setup. It's 80 degree out :smile (2):
