I have been using D143 for a little while now and love the cost and simplicity of it but having a few issues. One being that it dries up too quickly. By the time i spray it on and let it dwell for 30 seconds whether its been sprayed on the tires or wheels it dries right up. Im guessing this isnt the product at fault, probably the water or dilution ratio im using. I mix it 2:1 with water from the kitchen sink. Wrong dilution ratio or bad water? Another issue is the brownish tint left behind after scrubbing the tires with 2:1 d143 and a stiff bristle brush.

I love using this product, but im definitely open to new suggestions on a product for just rubber tires or a better wheel/tire combo cleaner. thanks in advance guys

What kind of tires do you have? I've experienced issues with certain "off-road" TOYO tires always having brown residue no matter how much you clean them.

I have nitto terra grapplers (all terrain) which I'm pretty sure is a branch off of Toyo. Damnit. Still have the drying up problem with other tires and wheels.

How hot is it where you are trying to use this product?

I always make sure the surface is cool to the touch and I get the same results anywhere between 40 and 80 degree weather
