Which tire cleaner(s) or products do you use to make those tires look like new, and doesn't work like a magnet for dust/dirt?

The best tire cleaner (black wall) I have found is Stoner's 'More Shine'. I have good luck with all of their products.

ol bear....cleaner or dressing? I guess I'm thinking more on the "cleaner" side. Soap and water with a good rinse gets them looking good, but I was wanting something for in between the washes, when the car is still clean, but the tires have picked up some dirt or brown dust.

I know you guys are gona laugh, but I've used Kiwi black paste shoe polish for 45 years. Put it on with a small brush applicator then buff it with a shoe brush just like you do with your shoes (assuming you polish your shoes). It makes your tires nice and black, it's not too shiny, it fills in all those tiny imperfections in the tire surface, it's not sticky, it doesn't build up like other tire care products, and it actually conditions and preserves the rubber. Don't laugh until you've tried it. Really! OK, I'll go away now.

I use glass cleaner on my tires if they are just dusty, it works great and I don't think it hurts the rubber.

I like my tires CLEAN as well and what I always use is a product called SPRAY NINE. When washing your car, rinse tire off spray on the niner and use a good ol stiff bristle brush and a little elbow grease. At the shows, for a quick wipe, just spray some on a damp rag and find that elbow grease again. Also If you get a nick in your white wall or your lettering, WHITE OUT can come in handy.

For cleaning your tires and wheels use plain dishwashing soap... Do not get harsh tire cleaners on your high dollar wheels, they will stain them... After washing your tires and wheels immediatley take your gas powered leaf blower and blow all of the water of your wheels and tires, this will keep your wheels from spotting... Wipe your tires down with Armour All, wipe them until they are dry.... That is the best method for build-up free tires that I have tried... l simply wipe my tires down with the same rag everytime out, I never have to wash them in less I'm caught in rain...
Good Luck
