    If anything that last pic is the best, perfect look to the tires. Did you apply and wipe off the gel, or just apply and leave as is? Great job on the truck, I have Collinite 915 on our other vehicles topping EX-P and I think it's an great wax.

    Definitely an awesome pic of the wheels/wells. So clean and it looks good. Good work and since this is done up so nice, you really have no need for that gallardo anymore. I will take it off your hands.
    OT: how do you pronounce Gallardo? Gal- r- doh? Guy-ar- doh?

    Very nice! I love the tires as well, and will be picking up some of the WG tire-gel.

    great job Gary. nice gloss.

    im getting that Wolfgang tire gel on next order. I think the Insane shine is to glossy on suvs and pick ups.

    Klasse AIO is on my list too.

    Thanks for all the complements guys.

    Surfer, To do these wheels I did the following steps:
    1. Wash with soap, water and brush.
    2. Go over tires and white lettering with Lacquer Thinner.
    3. Wash again with soap and water.
    4. Put on Wolfgang Black Diamond Tire Gel very thin, rub on good and don't wipe off.

    Instead of lacquer thinner I have also tried paint thinner and some over solvents before. The solvents work great at getting a lot of the marks off the tires that don't come off with soap and water and a lot of other cleaners. It cleans the white lettering very good also. The solvent to clean tires is kind of like claying your car. No matter what you put on afterwards they just look better if the are really clean before you start.

    Truls, I don't like the real shinney wet look on tires. I really like a semigloss more natural look. There are a lot of products out there that make tires to shinney for my tastes. Wolfgang does a very nice job and you don't get any slig off on your car.

    abrcrombe, I have heard Gallardo pronounced a number of different ways. I'm not really sure what the correct pronounciation is. Since the Countach I think the Diablo is the only Lamborghini car I have not heard pronounced a lot of different ways.

    bambo2888, So you have never heard of a Ford Bugatti???
