Question Armour all tire spray?

hey guys, I bought armour all's tire spray to day, and I sprayed it on the tires! IT shined em beautifully! However I didn't by the armour all rim spray, Instead I used the excess tire spray that dribbled down to finish off the rims! It also shined beautifully. Now I am feeling guilty of cheaping out on my new baby, so I just wanted to know if it does anything bad to the rims? Its any oily substance so, I hope it doesn't affect it with time!

Also, could we please lay the lexol issue to rest once and for all? I use the conditioner continuously on the seats, and leather upholstry. Is it true that lexol does not penetrate the leather and is completely useless? If so then how about this 303 stuff? or is the lexol's bad rap due to good 303 marketting strategy?

I grew up in the furniture business and around leather conditioning products. For your car Lexol is the best at the car parts store. If you really want to find something better then try some leather care products from a furniture store, otherwise lexol does the job.

If you want really nice looking tires, I suggest using some form of Tire Gel...it's a bit more expensive, but lasts much longer.

yeah man...i didn't believe it when it says last for weeks...but it's kinda true compare with others...

for best results, u gotta use the applicator...DON'T USE CLOTH!!

the gel stays on and protect and shines
