Well today I decided to try the Tuff Shine tire cleaner and Carrand Brush everyone has been raving about... I see what all the hub bub is about now!!!
First up was the Formula, I didn't use the Tuff shine on these cause frankly I forgot to go get it.
Both Cleaned with Meguiar's D143 & Mothers curved tire brush + various wheel brushes
Dressed with Meguiar's D163 & Carrand Brush

These have about 110 miles on since doing the cleaning. What I noticed while applying the D163 with my new Carrand brush is that the brush got VERY dirty. I thought the NAW&T cleaner would do a better job than it did considering the foam was white! I had to spend about 5 or so minutes with some Meguiar's APC and a towel to clean it up.
Then came the Bonneville's turn at some love.

The first pass with the TS (About 8-9 sprays) the foam was VERY brown so I decided to do a second pass with a little less product (4-5) and the foam was now white. Applying the D163 this time with the tire clean left no build up in my carrand brush! :xyxthumbs::xyxthumbs:
I would easily give the Tuff Shine, D163. and Carrand Brush a solid 9 out of 10
The Poorboys wheel cleaner gets an easy 8 (only took off points cause its really not spray and rinse completely but it brightens the wheels like crazy as you can see in that pic)
The Meguiars Non Acid wheel cleaner still gets a respectable 7.6 cause it does a decent job cleaning both the wheels and tires in one product.
