Joe- Yes.....3 parts water and 1 part WB. then 4:1 on the fronts.
Nope, no problems....just a few slow downs....tar

Chris i noticed my neighbors tires where dry rotting too. The tires are the original with 50,000 miles on them. Seems to be a little early to be dry rotting. Most wheels i see with dry rot are tires that have been sitting for long periods of time.

Like me, didyou find your suv a biach to detail esp the roof?

When I saw these I thought of Joe immediately. I remember the lengths he went to getting them back in shape.

Joe......
My truck just turned 50k miles as well. I think I may have to look into the dry rotting thing before I make another purchase of these tires.....
They are good tires, but if there is a problem with them drying out, I may have to look at other brands.....

Tex, why dilute the Meg's Wheel Brightener?

The wheel look great. I've been thinking of taking mine off to do the same. A lot of work, no? Did you remove the wheels by hand or an air powered wrench?

Raining down south? Looks like we might get some rain here too.

Too strong, and it could cloud your rims. not sure I would ever use it straight.

I removed the wheels by hand. I would have used air, but I had my compressor stolen a few years back, and never got around to buying a new one. So, it was a little bit of work.

No rain in Killeen, I actually just arrived in Houston for the weekend, and it looks like rain. Skys are dark and cloudy, but that doesn't mean anything here in Texas....LOL
