By best, what do you mean? Some like their tires shiny, some like it with a satin finish. Some don't mind spending time applying the tire conditioner, other want something quick.

For something quick and easy with a good shine, Stoner's Tire Shine works well. You simply spray it on and you're done. There are drawbacks. If you use too much, you'll get splattering. If it's windy, you'll get it on the paint and windows as well. But it's quick and easy to use.

Something that takes a little time but the results last a few washes is Swissvax Pneu. The product has quality ingredients that penetrate the rubber and truly condition. It takes a little time to apply but IMHO, the results are worth it.

A happy median that doesn't take too much time and looks great is Meguiar's Detailer Line All Season Dressing. It works very well and requires less effort than the Swissvax. It is a little shinier than Pneu, but not shiny like Armor All

No matter what conditioner you use, make sure to clean the tires and wheels with a good wheel cleaner so the conditioner doesn't build up over time

If you're putting on a racecar, I usually recommend stick with a water based tire dressing. There is no reason to put solvents on the tire that can dry it out.

Thanks for the advice, just the info I was looking for, did not want
to apply something that would dry out the rubber.

I would definitely go with something like Swissvax Pneu, its matte finish, doesn't sling and looks great!

I would have to say that Swissvax Pneu is probably our best selling tire dressing.

We have it in stock as well ready to go.
