  • A new look for my Silverado

    Today I bought new tires for my truck. I bought BF Goodrich All Terrain tires. I have to say they ride real nice, make the truck a little higher in the air, fill out the rear wells much better and take well to dressings!

    The only thing I did not like was the price, 1,000 bucks is a little stiff but oh well, hopefully I can make that up when my primary customer pays his tab.

    So after getting the new tires installed and driving home I washed the truck with #62 - Car Wash Shampoo and Conditioner, cleaned the wheels with Hot Rims All Wheel Cleaner. I the washed the tires with All Purpose Cleaner and a Versa Angle Tire Brush.

    Then I spraywaxed the truck with Ultimate Quik Wax, touched up the interior with Quik Interior Detailer, Natural Shine Vinyl & Rubber Protectant and a quick vaccum. The put new floormats in.


    Then my favorite part came, I dressed the tires with a combination of Hot Shine High Gloss Tire Gel and Hot Shine High Gloss Tire Spray

    I will try and get some better pics in the sun tomorrow, where it looks even better.

          Looks good!!

          Truck tires are expensive. Costs a little over $1,000 for the Jeep every 20k because off-roading just shreds the tires apart.

            I second that...nothing looks better on full-size trucks in my opinion. Excellent choice of tire and, as always, excellent job on the detail!

              Nice pick Nick! 5 bucks will make a pool of ASD and drive thru it after every wash now.

                    And to think so many people wash their trucks and NEVER even attempt to clean the tire and wheel. Wow, what they miss out on. Looks great.

                            That is still a new truck... did you wear the stock tires out that fast? Looks good though.
