totally depends on your desired level of shine. new tires aren't shiny so dunno where to go with your request. you can go with a clean black, clean black wet look, or all the way so it looks like your tires were sprayed with clear coat. either way brands would be mothers or maguires have had the longest lasting look for me and come in varying level of shine. cheaper products will fade in a day or be gone as soon as water hits the tire. either brand ive had last through a car wash so ive kept with it.

Thanks! Ya, I'm looking for that "wet" shinny look. I want to keep it looking new and fresh. So far I've been using Meguair's brand for interior and its been working great! I'll probably give the tire one a shot! Do you know a great polish?

no as far as exterior body i just keep them clean and waxed. i get told my 00 ex is in great shape so i try to keep it that way. its far from show quality but looks decent so i dont bother going crazy with buffing and polishing. my 13 accord is just a honda disaster besides its got the v6 so its pretty quick for a 4dr sedan. stupid extra thin panels to lower the weight makes it crazy easy to dent so again there its a waste. i honestly spend more time on other people's vehicle's detailing than on my own. when someone wants something like buffing or clay bar stuff i send them away. i do side work to help people out not spend half a day just to make a vehicle extra shiny. just finished a 79 vette actually. replaced and tuned the carb new dual exhaust fixed the rear diff and did some other various minor jobs. i vacuumed and wiped down the interior and returned it to the owner. only 2 extras i did was polished the chrome air cleaner and valve covers.
