Hey all,
I have had Nitto Ridge Grapplers on my JL for around 10 months now. Recently, I applied a tire cleaner foam since I noticed they were turning brown and dirty. The product removed the dirt but ended up staining my tires even more brown (Left pic is the tire after I applied the product). The browning is caused by a process called tire blooming, and apparently some compound in the product accelerates this process.
Has anyone else experienced this issue, and what is the best way to fix it? Some have suggested tire shine but that just masks the problem and doesn't actually fix the discoloration. I've also looked at degreasers but a lot of them seem to be harmful to these type of wheels.
