Well, I know I can do an almost one to one comparison cause we're running the same tires (aside from size). But after seeing your tires at the bbq, I was like waiiiit We're running the same camber...I've had my tires on since late last Spring and when they swapped the Falkens on to the Vossens, they look nowhere near that bad. I mean you couldn't have gotten more than 8,000 miles on those! My last set of Falkens (same as what we run now) lasted me almost 3 years and probably 25K miles.

Don't forget the deals the Ford dealer has on tires. I paid $672 for everything (mount, balance, shipping, tax, ect....) after the $100 rebate. Same tires on tirerack are $772 before shipping & you're gonna need to drop another $80 or so to have them mounted...... just saying

Thought I should share this with everyone as it's a great product. I've used countless tire shine products and this is hands down the best.... nothing else even comes close. Since it's a gel it's also nice and thick so it doesn't run and is the cleanest tire shine I've used as well. Only downfall is it stays on so well you can't even wipe it entirely off when storing your wheels.... found this out with my stockers. It's pricey but it you don't need to use much so it's a good deal.

This was applied 3 days ago and still looks like I just did it.

Looks like a good product joe! I love my poor boys gel since its water based and doesn't have any nasty oils to mess your wheel finish. Oh and it's coconut scent, gets all the ladies

Tire gel/wet = overrated. You def wanna stay away from it if you go anywhere near a track as well since you use some of your sidewalls and it takes A LOT to get it off.

How's everyone been lately? Took my CPA exam today so finally can just live the normal work life again. Flying out to Philly tonight and coming back home for a bachelor party Thursday night. Love drinking and getting dinner at the airport on the company. Nothing better than getting on a plane drunk
