Product Awards 2013: Best Tyre Shines

We tested 18 spray-on tyre shines to see which is the best to get your tyres looking as new

Best Tyre Shines

Tyre shine is a finishing touch that takes just a minute or two to apply, but can make all the difference.

A good one will leave your tyres looking like new, and keep them like that for weeks, while also slowing the build-up of road grime.

tyre shine is also one of the cheaper valeting products you can buy, so there's no reason not to use it.

Our quest for the best involved driving more than 1,000 miles over six weeks during the very worst of the winter weather.

We followed the manufacturers' instructions in applying the shines, then regularly monitored the resulting finish throughout the test.
