    I know this isn't a really amazing how to but i just learned and it helped me a lot.

    All you need to get your lettering looking nice and pearly white are some Brillo pads (probably 5 or 6)

    Grab those and a hose and keeping everything wet just scrub away for a while and all the grease and grime will come right off.

    I didn't take any pictures before cause I wasn't thinking about it but here's what the lettering looked like after about 3 minutes (per tire).

  3. I usually use a stiff-bristled scrubbing brush and some dishwashing liquid. That works as well. Never thought about using brillo pads though. Cool beans man

    Another thing that works really well is WD-40 and a rag. simply spray it on the white and wipe with rag.. Effortless...
