I'm still using a Meg's Gold Class tire brush that I got a hundred years ago that year they made them (and I think I have a couple more that I got at Big Lots) but it's not the greatest brush. I got a Tuf Shine brush that looks pretty good, but I haven't used it yet...honestly that looks like a standard brush that you ought to be able to pick up other places. Sorry I wasn't much help, lol.

I've been using one similar to that for a while. That one looks less contoured then mine though. Thats defiantly an option thanks! Keep any suggestions coming!

I'm pretty happy with this brush that I bought from a place up in Akron, Ohio...Perhaps you may like it too?
(I've never asked the guys where they source them from, though. Maybe I'll call 'em Monday)

Most brushes for tires are pretty comparable to me. None of them really do a complete job.

Use an old microfiber towel to scrub after the first scrub with the brush.

I like to run water over it while scrubbing with the mf towel and some brown Royale

I also see that tire brushes so always remove everything especially when using a weaker APC so I end up seeing brush swipe marks in the tire brown then need to clean again.

I have had the best luck with Optimum Power Clean and Mothers Wheel and Tire Cleaner.
