How I DETAIL My Wheels and Tires after Off-Roading!

[@ChloeKuo]

Hi friends 😊 Just saw that VRP and Tough Mudder truck wash are back in stock at Chemical Guys if you missed it when my video first came out! www.chemicalguys.com/tough-mudder-offroad-wash/CWS20204.html www.chemicalguys.com/vrp-super-shine/vrp-super-shine.html

Hi Chloe and yours. Today was a great day. I picked up my 2022 SR5 6 cylinder S5. Not matching your rebuild, but still a dream come true for my love and me. We both had so much loved driving this after I put on the KO2’s on. I want to thank you for all the Videos you posted. They inspired me so much. I ordered so much today from cab lights to rear lights etc.. Than you for sharing all you learned. You Helped me so much. Thanks Kelly

[@tmsuttle6754]

Chloe, some tips for your pressure washer. Get some quick connects for the hose from the pressure washer to your spray wand, it makes it a lot quicker and easier to switch between the spray wand and the foam cannon. If you want to go even further get a quick connect for the hose connection to the pressure washer and add an on-off switch there too. I've been using this setup with my Greenworks pressure washer for several years. Anything to make life easier. BTW - great videos!

[@jakeupbowden8837]

I’m really thinking of putting that same rim n tires on my 21 off road I like the white lettering on outside tho I really enjoy ur videos

[@johnl9135]

Favorite Chemical Guys: Definitely their RVP great on plastic vinyl and tires. Also their soap for my soap cannon for power washer. Thanks for remind me I can use their RVP for tires looks great.

[@chopstx4u207]

I like to scrub the tires before bringing out the shine. Try out the Adam’s wheel and tire cleaner. I think you will be super impressed. It literal works on contact before your eyes.

[@toddgoetsch649]

Hi Chloe, My wife and I subscribed to your channel and love it, Great Videos! Also we just purchased a new 2022 tacoma Offroad for my wife. After watching your video on the method wheels we purchased a set of Method 703 wheels with your super discount I want to thank you for the great deal. keep up the good work on the videos we look forward to the new ones. Todd and Jodi from Templeton, CA (Wine Country) 🍷

[@johart789]

It looks like you clean the wheel wells out as well. I am pretty anul about keeping them clean as well. Makes the entire truck look better. Always enjoy your videos. Thanks.

[@jayfleegle9455]

I love the dull black rather than the shinny armoral look. Great job

[@SpencerHogg]

Awesome ! I use a drill brush attachment on my dewalt drill for the tire walls! *Gyeon and Griot's Garage* products are also exceptional, I'd highly recommend to check those out.

[@prescottosegie]

Your videos are always very informative I love it I always love learning more about trucks 🛻 keep up the awesome work Chloe thank you for showing how to clean your tires 🛞 I appreciate it very much 💪🏾😎💯

[@dawabbitt3079]

I'm no professional detailer, but I *have* worked in the Automotive Tire/Service Industry (on/off) for over 3 decades. One thing I can tell you for certain is that simply 'foaming' a tire will *not* remove all the dirt, road grime and brake dust from the pores of the sidewall. Besides the application of soap/water/rinse - you definitely *have to* do some scrubbing! If you scrub your tires, you'll almost immediately notice the soap suds turn brown - which I'm assuming that it's from the dirt trapped within the pores of the tire casing. And if you *do* happen to go the extra mile-and-a-half by actually removing your tire/wheel assemblies to clean them - it's a really great idea to scrub the *inner* sidewall as well - applying your preferred tire dressing to it afterwards. Without scrubbing until not only 'looking' clean - but until it is actually clean - all you're doing is sealing microscopic dirt and brake dust into the pores of your tires. This is why people will eventually wind-up with 'greasy' tires after having had tire dressing applied to them, either at home or at their local car wash. Even to this day - there are *SO* many tires I rotate and balance at the shop I work at on a daily basis that you simply cannot handle on/off the balancer without using gloves to protect your hands from getting this greasy tire dressing embedded in every crease of your skin. From a little bit of research, I've found that dressings come in two varieties: *Solvent-based* (which are clear and greasy) and *Water-based* (which are milky). Aside from being non-biodegradable and often slinging up onto your paint while you drive away, *solvent-based* silicone dressings contain an compound known as Dimethyl (DMS) which leeches the elasticity from the tire causing it to harden prematurely. It also advances the movement of Antiozonant out of the rubber, causing premature browning of the tire called “blooming”. Antiozonant is added to the rubber to block Ozone and UV rays from damaging the rubber. As the DMS evaporates, it takes all the positive properties of the rubber with it, leaving behind a hard rubber and an unnaturally shiny tire that will attract dirt like flypaper. *Water-based* dressings contains a silicone based organic polymer known as PDMS. It is used in everyday items like shampooto leave hair silky and shiny. In addition, they often contain products that assist in UV blocking, are non-toxic, and are largely biodegradable. They won’t last as long as a solvent based dressing, but the benefits (and even the cost) are worth their use; and, they don’t attract dirt like their counterparts. I'm by no means trying to be a troll here - My only intent is to offer my findings of detailing tires.

[@mr-peabody]

I can co-sign your info. The tire warranty on set of Sumitomos (non-taco vehicle) said that wheel protectants would void the warranty. Specifically: DO NOT APPLY SIDEWALL DRESSING OR HARSH CHEMICAL CLEANERS SUMITOMO tire sidewalls are specially compounded to resist ozone and weather cracking. Use of some dressings or cleaners may degrade rubber and remove inherent ozone resistance, resulting in premature cracking or discoloration. Use a mild soap solution to clean sidewalls and white lettering, and rinse with plain water.

I agree. Always scub the tires until the brown residue looks white. Only then are they clean.

Love the Chemical Guys products. I have been using them for years, and the fifteen percent off is a good deal! Great video and your truck looks great!

[@DeuceDeuceBravo]

I use my pressure washer for the foam cannon, but that's it. Pressure washers can cause damage way to easily and also blow off your wax/sealant. Also, the best "wheel brush" I've used is actually a convertible top brush (which CG also sells); it's softer than a dedicated wheel brush but works just as well. And wheels need sealant, especially matte paint!

[@Guywhoquestionsthings]

The secret to pro rims is chemical guys diablo wheel cleaner because its soft on the finish and chemical guys meticulous matte for shine and uv protection. Serioulsy a must need for pro wheels.

[@gore1978]

and to ceramic coat the barrels of the rims once that are like factory condition to help wash off the dust

[@jessem.2807]

I've been using Chemical Guys for years and have been pleased with all their products. Some of my favorites are the Diablo Gel wheel cleaner and Troq Foam Blaster.

[@timallen6662]

[@ericsugalsku1826]

I've had the same problem with the brown staining on my tires. I'll try that product. I know our tires are for the mud , but it makes my tires look dirty .

[@Eastsidegeorgiaboy]

Most good tire dressings/tire shine will minimize the brown stains, or remove them. It helps if you scrub the tires, and use a degreaser, then use the tire dressing.

[@troyotto4125]

I painted my wheels black and I use the Mothers Brand ceramic CMX coating on them .It makes cleaning easier especially brake dust.

[@r0b0saurusrex80]

Sold out.. bummer. Thanks Chloe love your channel and your videos. Chemical guys products are amazing

Been watching your video since I got my Tacoma .. I have a 21 SR5 4x4 what size tires should I get without trimming or having it lifted…

Nice! My go-to detailing supplies are from Chemical Guys and Griot's Garage.

[@kenshintakahashi]

Great video! Cleaning tires and wheels can be annoying imo but hey! You should try give Dura Dressing shot. I think you will love it for sure!

[@poboyblues12]

Sticky citrus is the only matte black wheel cleaner that works. At least for me and my 4 runner. I have the same wheels you do.

[@dailyoptions7832]

Coolest thing to have a gf that loves TRD pro and off reading and takes care od cars at home

[@Sonytherealtor]

Pretty cool, I’ll have to check out the wheel cleaner. For tire dressing I prefer to use 303 Aerospace for the rubbers (and all other plastics)

[@carolinawoods-n-water4392]

Great video! The tires & wheels look awesome! Question - for normal every day driving, how long does the VRP stay looking good on the tires? Really like how it doesn’t look greasy or oily.

[@gore1978]

only a few days as VRP is a water based product. if you are looking at the chem guys products Tire and Trim gel or any other oil based products will last longer I found

[@ChloeKuo]

So it’s been 2 weeks of daily driving (I haven’t done any off roading yet) and my tires are pretty clean! I also like that they don’t look oily as well, just a nice deep matte black

[@agfa663]

For longer last, you can use lemon furniture polish like Pledge. It makes the tire matte black, but very black and it last long. I prefer matte than shiny as it matches the black trims of the truck.

[@_Eltoto93]

Leaf blower for the drying

[@randylamb920]

Need help. When you originally put the TRD Pro wheels on your truck, did your blu tooth sensors swap over or did you have to purchase new ones? Thaks so much.

[@agfa663]

Use a small insect/pesticide sprayer instead of that gun-trigger bottle. Pump it first then spray. It make a nicer mist and saves your forearm muscles.

[@eo_pono5486]

What are some good cleaning products you can just get at your local store that give the same results. It’d be kind of annoying for me to constantly keep ordering more products and have to wait for them to come in.

[@lucky-rowe2623]

Thanks for the video.

[@LTZ_Z71]

Realizing this is a Chemical Guys sponsored video, one thing to at least consider is using an all purpose degreaser on the wheels and tires. I've used that for years on various wheels and tires and it works just as well and it's WAY cheaper in the long run. It also does a great job at getting the brownish buildup off of the tires too. I know Chemical Guys makes a good all purpose degreaser if you wanted to stay with that brand.

[@rp3823]

Another AWESOME video. … Can’t believe I’m watching a detail video! 😳😎🛻❤️

[@DerkuiDerkui]

I use Adam's Polish stuff. My Chemical Guys isn't all that bad though. They are similar except the micro-fiber mitt from My Chemical Guy is superior. Also, you use less product while Adam's you have to use a lot more.

[@yername31]

lol i use a hose, scrub brush and elbow grease no jack or stands involved

Do these fit tightly on the rear hub? I almost have to force the wheels on my Tacoma.

Nano coat the wheels, or scuff them and Mat 2k clear them, the factory paint sucks, ( I’m terrible, I hardly ever wash my truck in CA, save water and time ) , looks great

Chloe!!! Good morning!

[@calejared]

If you want to keep your tires cleaner for longer. I would recommend not using a tire shine. That attracts the dirt and dust and tire shine will keep dirt trapped in your tires. When you use tire shine it also will turn your tires brown after long periods of not using the shine or dressing.

[@msdosnt]

Wrong. Very wrong. Don’t listen to this guy. Certain tire shines, the cheap crap, will attract dust/dirt. Also the browning or blooming of tires is because of an additive tire manufactures put in the rubber to prolog the life of the rubber. It’s called antizonant. It works its way to the surface and browns the tire. Do yourself a favor and Google it and understand why and how to clean it and what products get your tire back to black without a fake shine. Basically you don’t want shine, you want black. You’re just parroting what you’ve heard and prolonging the stupid rumors and is not based on any knowledge or experience.

[@calejared]

It is based on knowledge and experience. I've been detailing for 3 years and I don't use cheap stuff. I use the very same product she is using in the video. Don't assume

[@chrisking6695]

“It says in the back of the product that it’s great for tires” Yes because the want to sell it. I can only tell you to not be a shill for corporations. Chemical Guys sell a lot of basic products in many different packagings. If you don’t know the chemical composition of the products you’re the best target. Like their washes are often times the same base just different dyes and scents. So you end up buying 3-4 washes one for off road one for foam gun etc. but they’re all the same chemically lol. And don’t use any plastic or tire shine. It’s not good for the tires. Just keep them natural looking. You also want the side biters to bite and slathering on tire shine makes them slippery.

Potential dumb question but I bought Adam's Wheel and Tire Cleaner and it warns against using the product on anodized wheels. I have the same TRD rims that you have and from what I can find online they're not anodized but wouldn't mind a second opinion on the matter. Thanks in advance!
