Re: [Chrysler300] American Classic tyres

Henry,
I have found, over the years, that if you use Armor-all or other silicon based product on your tires, it will cause the black rubber compound to break down and bleed over onto the whitewall, turning it brown. For several years now, I have been using "Mop n Glow" on my tires. Simply sponge it on, let it dry, apply another coat, let it dry, and enjoy the whitewall. It leaves a nice low gloss coating, unlike the slimy-looking coating from Armor-all, and it won't sling onto your fenders while driving. Just like Armor-all, it will have to be re-applied after about three or four washings, but you will never have to sand or steel-wool the whitewalls again.

Subject: [Chrysler300] American Classic tyres


Has anyone had long term experience with American Classic tyres as far as
he whitewalls turning brown?  I went to our Wintersun car show on the Gold
oast today.  It is a week long festival open to any cars pre '74.  I saw on
 car four year old American Classic tyres that still looked good.  However,
he Diamond Back agent had one on display that was cut through showing brown
hrough the white wall.  I couldn't read how old it was though.  They
iscredit these tyres claiming their moulded on whitewalls are better.  I
ssume they put Cokers in the same class.  That may be so but they don't
ell the 235/75/R14s I want.  Anyone with comments?
 
Note there weren't any 300's to be seen (as to be expected) but there were a
ew 426 hemis and a supercharged 392.
