i am surprised to see people are still submitting suggestions to this thread. since i have started a rock course in my back yard with different types of rocks. i have seen my tires break in faster and better just by driving them over the different rock surfaces. i am still going to use the kralwer kit from jp customs when i go to a comp, but for now just driving is doing my tires good

I would have NEVER thought to do anything in this thread.

I put them on and run them, when they get bald-ish, they get removed from service. After reading this, I tried the simple green and it works, but you have to do it every time as the effect wears off.

I use dynamite motor spray and a lighter

It works, but only do it once. It gets all the release agents off. Then I just CRAWL

and periodically clean them with simple green, or just warm soapy water
