Good car wash & tire shine (pics)

Just picked up some Meguiar's Gold Class Car wash & shampoo, and some No Touch Seriously Wet Tire Shine. These are the best 2 products i have used so far. The car wash does a really god job of cleaning and even smells good. No Touch is by far the best brand for tire products, they dont use certain chemicals that almost all other products do that will eventually cause cracks in your tires. Anyway here's the pics:

Do you have much trouble with the tire shine stuff splattering off your tires and onto your fenders?

no not really... i spray it close enough (about 3 inches) so that it doesnt get on anything else but the rims, and i just wipe that off right away.

i'll try the tire shine on the wheel well, thanks.
