IS STREETSPEED 717 WHEEL & SOOT CLEANER ANY GOOD? | Wheel & Tire Cleaner Faceoff

[@charlesstevens8435]

You should do more of those type videos I love the way you presented it and gave us factual information that we could watch and see

[@Xtalgic]

Thanks for this! Will def be doing more videos like this, it was a ton of fun 🤘

[@aldoavak9]

I've found that a 50/50 solution of water and Simple Green works best and it won't damage the finish on wheels. Requires very little scrubbing as well.

[@blackfly53]

Simple Green is hands down one of the best multipurpose cleaners on the market, a gallon goes a long way

[@Dirtay427]

And here's a little trucker advice for you 50x50 mix of simple green and water in your windshield washer Reservoir works great if you live in an area where you get a shit ton of bugs in the summertime other than that use a three-to-one ratio for the rest of the year, accept winter obviously

[@Simpsons.R.S]

I did a video similar to this.... ss717 vs chemical guys. I agree the vehicle give away is nice but in my opinion it's tough to fork out $25 for a product that does the same as a $9 product.

[@TheSheldonbroderick]

So which one was better

[@chrishoyt3032]

$9 Required alot more solution to clean the wheel than the $25 Streetspeed717 solution did. Think about that.

[@TheSheldonbroderick]

@ChrisHoyt damn I always bought chemical guys products now I gotta find something else

[@Simpsons.R.S]

@@TheSheldonbroderick when I did my comparison.... I used roughly the same amount of product and got the same results. There might have been more used one way or the other but not a significant amount to change any results.

[@Sergeantgrunt]

I usually pick the cheapest thing on the 717 website just to enter the giveaway. Yes, it's based on the dollar amount for entries but one entry has the same ability to win as does 1000 entries. You'll of course have better odds but that doesn't mean you'll actually win if you spend more money to get more entries. The lottery back home used to say, "Some lucky dog will win! However, you have to play to win. So spend as little as you can and if you win... You get a badass car or truck.

[@c4rn199]

Somehow you won the youtube algorithm for today, with that being said I bought this stuff as well so I figured I would comment. Mike said him and Shane needed something to clean the exhaust tips on their cars so this is mainly what it is used for. I used it on my Vette (C7 Z51) and it worked great. Can you do a video testing his product vs others that claim to clean exhaust tips or soot? I would be interested to see the results.

[@Dirtay427]

Get rid of that 717 snake oil and go to a 50/50 mix of Simple Green

[@heynetalks]

Always had great luck with Eagle One Wheel cleaner. Would be curious to see Maguire's up against some other big names though.

[@Vetteman372]

Good deal I was going to try 717 cleaners but after this, i will buy Meguiars wheel cleaner. I have tried black magic and it was not good unless you scrubbed it in but soup and water do same in results

[@mitchellhuey5612]

How about a test using P&S Brake Buster product? It typically goes for around $25 for a gallon which you can dilute and and use a foamer or spray bottle.

[@chrish8229]

I used it and was not impressed. Seemed weak to me

[@thinkforyourself5672]

Turtle Wax came out with a new Extreme Solutions Wheel cleaner + Iron Decon and its phenomenal. Definitely on the pricier side at like $12 a bottle but it works really well and can be used as an iron remover on the wheels and paint. Definitely worth a try.

[@Michael426]

Definitely a good video! Would love to see how Adam’s and chemical guys and turtle wax stack up.

[@timb7775]

Bucket of warm water with Maguiars Gold Class car wash and a foam sponge, my rims come out completely clean. A little elbow grease and a stiff brush for the tires.

[@alankowalski8781]

So, it being $25, doesn’t that put it in last place regardless of how well the other ones do, because even if I had to use two bottles of Armoral to get the wheels clean, it’s still less than half the price of the Steetspeed717 Snake-oil?

[@Stackali]

yup. on project farm he accounts for the cost.

[@bought2build]

check out wheely clean that is my personal favorite stuff straight works Vs chemical guys Diablo wheel cleaner?

[@danthechevymanc6b475]

I haven't tried all of those brands but I have had surprisingly good luck with wheel cleaner from dollar tree. I know it sounds crazy but it has worked better than some expensive brands. It would be cool to see how it compares.

[@kylekennedy21]

Do a comparison with griots garage heavy duty wheel cleaner. That’s what I use for all my wheels.

[@dakotacartervlogs5935]

I mean if you would’ve not wiped the tire with the towel when doing street speeds it would’ve been less dirty. And if you would’ve wipe the same spoke on each of them also

[@mdw5157]

I've got a silly question...why buy any of these "wheel and tire cleaners" when, as someone else stated, just use soap/ water/scrub and done? I'm not a pro, but have been hand washing my cars for decades, used many products, but always go back to just using good ol' soap/water and always does the trick...for me anyway. (To me, buying these products has always been a waste of time and money, but am hoping one day there will be some magic method of TRUE no scrub washing)

[@mdbd1863]

Just like cooking pans & dishes, some are cleaned with water, some water & soup but some (depending on whats cooked) the food will stick to the pans you need a powerful cleaner to dissolve the leftovers quickly

[@mdw5157]

@@mdbd1863 understood, and I guess I've been lucky enough to not have been in a situation where I would need anything other than soap/water to clean my wheels/tires. ..and if I were ever to need anything stronger, to take off heavy tar/paint (or something similar), I'd be sure NOT to buy any of the one's tested, as they can't even remove simple dirt/brake dust/etc. Is there a more scientific reason for these seemingly worthless products?

[@chrish8229]

I end up doing both anyways don't know why just do.

[@Funexpected]

The people complaining about the price are overlooking the fact that you're entering to win a vehicle. No one is buying anything from his site if not for the giveaway. I look at it as though I'm buying a raffle ticket for the prospect of winning a cool vehicle, and getting something I ordered as a concession when I don't win the raffle.

[@timb7775]

I think they are complaining because they want a product that works AND a chance to win. Instead people not only don't win they don't have a product that works.

[@Funexpected]

@@timb7775 For info, the pink detail spray worked well as a lubricant to clay my truck. The mister was great, but the plastic bottle wasn't all that strong.

[@christiansouthard5677]

Should use the mequiars all wheel cleaner in the black and yellow bottle instead of the one you used.

[@AnEvilBigfoot]

There kind of is one flaw with the procedure here. Not all 4 wheels are going to start with the same amount of break dust and dirt. That would depend on which wheel they were on, the size of the brake pad, brake rotor, whether the car is fwd/rwd/awd, so it’s nearly impossible to keep it consistent with all those variables. I’m not saying the results would’ve been different, but it’d be cool to see you do another video like this somewhat addressing these issues. Maybe mark which wheel is which, drive for x amount of miles (maybe the same route for similar braking), clean them, and then rotate the wheels and drive the same amount of miles/same route and clean them again making sure to mark all the rags for later comparison

[@kingkobina]

Maybe Streetspeed should start buying cases of Meguiars and pour them in his cleaner 🤔🤔🤔

[@kennyrogers1243]

@RICARDO big time

[@ACProductions77]

Very interesting review for wheel cleaners, I never use them I normally just use the car soap to clean the wheels, but now that I watched your review I’ll buy the meguires hot wheel cleaner. Would like to add that I do use white wall cleaner for the tires with a tire brush to really clean the black wall tires as I feel that it does a better job then the one titled and marked “black wall”. What do you use and recommend to clean your tires?

[@lorddylanwolford3192]

I use the dawn platinum power wash for ur dishes and legit don’t have to scrub anymore

[@austinreed7618]

Do one with durrrtymax jack and vs ss717

[@JoshuaWorth]

Great thorough video brother well done 👏

[@joshbrletic4328]

I dont use wheel cleaners. I wash my car at least once a week year round (a perk of TX). I have a sponge for wheels only and get in the crevices. I then dry the same way woth a cotton towel and top tires off with Black Magic Tire Wet. (Which seems to have gotten weaker over the years). Used to stay on longer and through rain, not so much anymore.

[@TheWolfMatt]

I also get the SS717 Wheel and Soot cleaner and for the same reason, possibility of getting a free car/truck is always nice. However, I tend to just use the Meguiar's Ultimate Wash and Wax Liquid and simply scrub each wheel with a wheel brush and give them a quick rinse afterwards. They almost always come out 100% clean and stay that way for some time. Loved the video though, great comparison between the 4 different brands. Maybe another you could try is a good exhaust tip cleaner and/or chrome cleaner thats painless to use. Don't see many vids on those.

[@joshbrletic4328]

Please do one on cleaning Genny sedan exhaust tips. Mine are ok on the outside but inside, thick black carbon/soot. Used a Dremel when I first got it, but takes too much time to do all the time.

[@jessebecool1189]

Great review video of the products.

[@tommeere3901]

Great video. I too bought speed streets wheel cleaner for the giveaway. However, mine only shoots in a stream regardless of the setting. Bottom line, I don't care for it...

[@WideOpenThrottleC6]

one side should be a stream and the opposite side a spray, the other 2 are off. cant see getting a defective sprayer happening often

[@bimmer4755]

I’ve tried the black magic no scrub . It’s garbage . I’ve tried it on my BMW X3 with red m caliber’s. It didn’t do s$&t.

[@fastaSSalex]

Should try out that dude in blue cleaners as well 🤷‍♂️

[@drtschker3072]

Meguiars has always been my choice. Love all of their products

[@carguy0389]

A little pricey though

[@scottmattern482]

Nice work! My first time seeing one of your videos, your production value is top notch. My conclusion is that all of these "wheel cleaners" work as well as most automotive APCs, I wouldn't buy any of those as a dedicated wheel cleaner. My go to is Adams tire and rubber cleaner (cleans tires exceptionally well and does pretty good on the wheel) for maintenance washes, for deep cleaning try koch chemie's MWC (magic wheel cleaner) it was designed to be a touch less cleaner, but works wonders with mild agitation.

[@MrPlymouth88]

Adams polishes is the best hands down. I detail cars a little on the side and that’s all I use

[@scottmattern482]

@@MrPlymouth88 heck yeah, adams has a very good line, I used to exclusively use it. For the last couple years I have been using lots of stuff from the rag company, I find you can get more bang for your buck on many types of chemicals and towels. Good luck!

[@lukeballard7859]

I've also never had much luck with the Armor All brand either. But you gave all four a very fair comparison and a good shake. Nicely done! Very thoughtful insight and nicely executed my man.

[@3sgteyota]

I thought Meguiars didn't last long because of the amount sprayed. But SS717 was SEVENTY DOLLARS shipped for 2 bottles. Tbh StreetSpeed717 is selling a car, Meguiars is selling a wheel cleaner.

[@tjcline154]

Should try chemical guys wheel cleaner. See how that compares

[@Jufullback35]

Meguiars Ultimate All Wheel cleaner is the best. Its even better than their Hot Rims brand.. and I also have Streetspeed 717 and was not impressed at all.

[@clintmiller88]

If he could compete with the prices of Chemical guys or Adam’s say 10-15 a bottle even at 15 he would sell twice as much and could sell a whole lineup of cleaners and soaps

I feel like everyone is missing the mark here why not get your Maguires and then just buy a T-shirt to win a car you get both of best World Clean wheels and possibly a car.

[@nicka2929]

When you look at it this way when it comes to the price of 717s with what comes with it is totally worth the price. Now when it comes to the comparison to the McGuires absolutely not. With that being said I think it did do pretty well so I guess it's all in what you want

[@johnathanscott3916]

Pricey yes but the wheel cleaner is the best I've used and the interior cleaner works great aswell!

[@bigd9848]

I buy Adams products and they are my go to. I purchase a lot of Mike’s AKA streetspeed717‘s products that cost 💲 much more but I get chances to win the cars. I can buy the stuff for half or a quarter of the price elsewhere but I do it to support his channel and to win. I have a closet full of every tee shirt and a big knife collection no car yet but hey you never know ✊

[@jeremyleverette6750]

Not a far comparison. Should have used 4 fronts not two fronts two rears an kept wheels further apart so water an products don't cross over like they were ...simple green works a lot more than any if those cleaners. I've used street speeds cleaner an wasn't a huge fan. on chrome it streaks. Windex worked better

[@powerstrokeful]

[@forcastcube7]

Great Video!

[@raynavarra]

Good content. I’m a street speed fan too. But the wheel cleaner is WAY overpriced. If you can make a wheel cleaner for 7 dollars that does a good job, how can you justify 25 bucks for a product that does the same thing. And actually not a great job. For 25 bucks I would expect a wheel cleaner to leave no brake dust. I know that is nearly unheard of. But I’m out for 25.

[@ZLSLOW]

All meguiars products are badass

[@charleshenson4183]

Just like I thought,snake oil. Just do it the old fashioned way...works every time.

[@ppeller3]

What's the point of ANY so called wheel cleaner if I still have to hand scrub the wheel to get them clean? Save your money and use the same cleaner that you would use on the rest of the car. Use a separate bucket but the same soap .

[@jlewee]

As other comments stated...I am pleasantly surprised to see how well street speed stacked up. It is afterall, a raffle ticket that actually does a service win or lose, lol

[@buffalobmf]

The fact he charges $25 is a joke. But If youre going to scrub you can just use normal car soap. Scrubbing anything with anything will take brake dust off all that matters is on if you touch every part of the wheel while scrubbing

[@Ericraymond26]

I detail for a living you didn’t give any of these products a fair chance the “scrubbing” you did was terrible barely got in between the spokes these aren’t spray on then rinse of and your shits gonna be brand new again only wheel acid will do that I’ve used every single one of these products and they all pretty much suck besides the street speed one with the other products you’ll see that when they dry you’ll see residue left on the wheel but these rims weren’t even dirty 😂 MIST the rim with water spray the wheel cleaner on deliberately covering every inch not just the face of the rim but inside the spokes which you missed let it sit for at least 2 minutes then go inside with your brush and actually scrub the rim instead of this half ass job then you’ll see better results you most likely watered down the product using so much water

[@fearlessmedia5076]

Nanoskin wheel and tire cleaner

[@DefinitelyNotYouThankGod]

You should NEVER pre rinse!!!! It dilutes everything you use

[@Ericraymond26]

Exactly what I just said 😂 I detail for a living all these products got watered down if you want to pre rinse at least use a pressure washer and lightly mist the wheel and make sure your using more product then water
