    great. I've got the black in super shape but I can't get the white letters to look bright white. They appear dull yellow. Since I do not use water on my cars anywhere (as in washing) do you have any suggestions? I thought about applying bleach with a tooth brush to the letters. Has anbody tried that? What do you guys do that works? Thanks!!! Your expertise is unbelieveable.

    I use Wesley's bleach white tire and white wall cleaner with a small brush. It works great.

    I second the Westleys, just don't get any on your aluminum wheels or painted surfaces. The stuff is pretty caustic.

    Do you apply the Westley's only to the letters....

    and try to keep it off the black part of the tires?

    No, it cleans the black part good also. Just keep it of the rims as much as possible.
