its the tire shine

 

Why's it only on 2 though, and not all 4?

 

have no idea but it soes it on mine when i use the extreme tire shine and it is usally on the rear but that is my 2cents wich really aint woth shit

 

x2.

You need top learn that offroad tires + tire shine = AZZ.

 

Maybe I'll lay off using it then, not that I put it on everytime I was my truck though. LOL

Just for shows and whatnot, because my gloss black rims look ghey with all that dull, flat tire wrapped around it...

 

Can't hurt to try. :shrug:

 

limestone dust from your driveway.

 

come to tjink of it he is right i did not look at your driveway

 

See, but again, why only on the rear 2 and not all 4?

And this never happened with my low pro's when I was lowered. Is it just the type of tire that collects this film?

 

Your front tires are stiring up the dust and then the tire dressing on the rear tires catches it.

 

:flatman:

what he said

 

sooooooorrrrryyyyyyyyy


I skeet skeet skeet'd on them

 

If that is the case why didnt it do it with the other tires though??? BTW nice rub marks on your fender liner!!

 

Could possibly be the tire mounting lube. Weird that it is only the rear two however maybe they required more lube to install. Maybe even aluminum dust (if the tire installer had to clean up the rim beads). Does the dirt line seem to line up with your rim spokes? Could be very dirty behind the rim center cap as well. That's all I got for you.:shrug:

 

i agree....front two tires stirring up dust on the back two.

 

It could be the front tires throwing it on it might not have done it lower cuz it would've hit the body and been less noticeable? or it could be the same reason it happens to cars at work to much tire shine I noticed when it starts to run it leaves white marks and the rain could've have spread it around even more to get a film everywhere.

 

Thanks for the input guys. I think I'll hold off on tire shine for a while, then throw some on. If it does it again, then I'll know for sure.

 

mounting lube.

 

he said lube

 

 

:shrug:if it dont quit you could always try turning your tires around

 

ha, its the mold release agent from the tire cast, i deal with kumho tires all day and only certain ones have this problem. rotate the tires front to back and i bet you the two "clean" ones still wont get dusty like this.

best thing to get it off with is a wire brush and soapy water. easiest to do it with the car/truck jacked up and just spin the tire and lay the wire brush on it. light pressure is all it takes. or you could use soapy water and steel wool.

 

See, I had a feeling it had more to do with the tires themselves, and not so much outside elements. I just couldn't get my mind off the fact that it was only 2 and not 4.

Does this eventually wear off? Or am I going to have this film popping up every so often?

 

it'll eventually all come off after several washes, if you use a degreaser style rim cleaner it will take it off alot faster, but not sure how harsh it will be on your painted wheels. it looks like crap and alot of people complain about it, but nothing you can really do about it except wire brush scrub....

 

I just use soap and water on my rims, for that reason. I'll just scrub the shit off each time, whenever that will be. lol This shit's been on there since Saturday and I haven't gotten off my ass to clean it yet! Weather's been crappy though...

 

You can also try using vinegar as your cleaning/treating agent. Its an old remedy I learned for rubber exposed to the sun.
