Thanks 2011 Kona Blue and MDKid92. I just don't want to ruin the finish on my stock wheels. It's good to get other peoples thoughts/ideas.

I only use Meguiar's tire shine products and they are awesome.

Count me in under the not an Armor All fan category. I've found that their stuff breaks down quicker, and seems to leave the underlying surface worse off. Tires go brown, plastics look even worse, and a auto restorer/customizer once told me that coatings of Armor All on a dash board turn sticky after a lot of years and are nearly impossible to get off.

ArmorAll'ed plastic is one of the nastiest feelings ever. I can't stand touching interior pieces with ArmorAll on them

I sometimes use the Armor All interior plastic wipes and can't say the finish it gives off bothers me. I do think I'm gonna try the Meguiar's interior plastic wipes too see how good they are.

I witnessed this on a 2001 Altima where the dude used Armorall on the dash and steering wheel for years. The steering wheel was literally gooey to the touch, even after several thorough cleanings it was still soft, but at least it quit leaving black on your hands. It had done the exact opposite of what it was supposed to do. It broke down the plastic and materials and turned them to goo.
