Add me to the group that uses frequent applications of tire dressings .
The Michelin tires on my duramax , Mercedes , and Porsche have zero signs of cracking .
I apply the dressing to my boat trailer tires and my travel trailer tires .
Ooh Shiny !
Actually I go back over the tires with a blue cloth /paper shop towel to diminish the shine .
It is the BLACK appearance that I prefer .
I've been using armorall and others since the 1970's .
I have never had a single problem from that .
In recent years I have picked up 3 other brands when on sale .
Some work better on plastic such as the plastic bumper tops on my duramax .
It appears the folks that say that tire dressing is damaging to their tires do not have hand's on experience with the products .
How would they know that tires develop cracking due to dressing applications ?
I have mostly Michelins and Continentals with no adverse effects due to tire dressing .
