All of these are superb performers with the "more glossy" going to Pinnacle and Wolfgang. Now this glossiness is not the wet shine you might be thinking of if you've ever used something like Meguiar's "Hot Wheels" tire spray.
While either the Pinnacle or Wolfgang are applied they do give off that wet appearance but as the product soaks into the rubber it tends to tone it down to a nice black satin finish. I apply all my tire treatments with a brush and a foam sponge.
DP Gloss Tire Gel goes on buttery smooth and dries to a deep dark rich blackness. It's has sort of a mint smell to it but goes away after it's dried.
Optimum Opti-Bond Tire Gel is another good performer but it takes a couple of coats to get it looking good. This gives what I'd call the flattest finish although it does look quite good but not as rich as the three above.
All of these are reasonably priced and are especially appealing when on sale!

thanks for taking the time to share the detailed rundown. great info!
Can't remember the guys name but he posted a pic of his f150 the other day-I think he was reviewing a waterless wash or something and his tires were coated in the stuff. They had an extremely high gloss which switched the discussion from what the original post was for an turned into "what in the world did you use on those tires?!".
Here is a pic with my F150 with Croftgate on it as well as a pic of my Mustang with it as well, I left it on my truck for an hour or so and then wiped it off while on my Mustang I wiped the excess off after 15 minutes or so. If you leave it on a while you get a high shine, take it off quickly and you have more of a matte finish. Does not sling very bad either.
