I think every tire browns/blooms a little different. I've had good luck with Meguiar's D143 Non-Acid Wheel and Tire cleaner. Get a good tire brush too. It may not get all the browning/blooming out of the tires but it will definitely clean them. D143 is very economical.

Stay away from greasy tire dressings. Three tire dressings that I've had good luck with are. Meguiar's Hyper Dressing, Carpro PERL, and Poorboy's Bold and Bright tire dressing and cleaner in the gel form.

Yes sir. Clean them with the Mothers then hit them with Gyeon T1 Tire. The only tire dressing (coating) I use now.

I've used McKee's 37 Tire and Rubber Rejuvenator for quite some time and it performs very well. Two or three applications of a safe product like the McKee's cleaner are better than one application of a stronger product that may cause harm.

Normally I don't take pictures tire cleaning, but here are a few I found from earlier this year.

Ahh... the dreaded "tire blooming." I hate this! Tire manufacturers should work to eliminate this very ugly characteristic! In my experience (as some others have mentioned) some tire dressing products seem to exacerbate this. So frustrating! I had the worst luck with the 303 Aerospace product. When it wore off the tire bloom seemed to really accelerate. It may be just how some tire dressings interact with some tires and tire compounds.

Tire Blooming. Good old Bleach White works great. $11 per gallon and call it a day.

In my experience which is limited, blooming /browning is going to happen period due to tire compounds. That said I must add , since Eldorado explained to me the PROPER way of mixing D143 it's been great. Scrub twice, dress tire done move on. Oh and Paul A is always extremely helpful.

Tire blooming (turns brown) for me was on new Firestone tires.

Showed up about 2 weeks after installed.

APC and stiff brush removed most.

Applied dressing.

One week later blooming back.

Strong degreaser and stiff brush removed.

Tire dressing applied.

One week later brown - time to break out the Tuf Shine Tire Cleaner.

Cleaned and applied dressing 6 weeks and still no brown.

Persistance paid off on new tires.

My old ones had no blooming issues but were 1 year old when I bought the car.

Don't think the products used would make much of a difference as they were all high quality but the Tuf Shine has consistantly given me good results.

Local autoparts store had Bleach White so I grabbed a bottle of that and it has been working fine for the past couple of weeks. I always used it when I had Raised White Letters.

thanks for the tips!

I’ve had browning on tires also,some cars worse than others. I have tried many tire cleaning products some good some not so good. What I tried recently was SuperClean, an all purpose cleaner. Did a very good cleaning on some very brown tires.Can be found at most retailers with an automotive department.
