Armor All's extreme tire shine.... the one with the sponge lol.. in an orange box.... best stuff ive used so far, lasts through rain and comes off when i wash the tires so i dont get nasty buildup.

Adam's VRT. Works great. Not too shiny and doesn't seem greasy and collect dust like others I've used.

DuPont Teflon Tire Shine because it doesn't have petroleum that will turn your tires brown. Looks really nice and isn't messy.
