My Tires Turned Blue

[Rkgzx9leftcoast]

you can try Simple Green, its all I use on my tires from time to time. Its not a sheen, it makes them look new/dull. Caveat: Im not sure of the chemical reaction with the blue? you may want o wait till that burns off, then do it.

If you can figure out a way to match Area 51 you could probably market the blue tires.

Keep in mind, you're asking advice from some people that can't tell the difference between your Bronco and a Ford Flex.

My recommendation is to stop off-roading on the Hanford Nuclear Reservation : )

I've been wheeling and mudding for years, never had my tires turn this blue. Mud pit in a trail near Naches,WA, it was thick!! Reading online, chemical reaction from the metals mud, sounds like I need to wash, scrub and treat my tires to fix, some said pressure wash but that didn't do anything. Not too concerned yet, curious if anyone has a solid recommendation to fix. I don't recall ever putting on a tire dressing, maybe I have but I wouldn't know which one since I have a few in my chem cabinet.

Not sure if this is what you are seeing, but when tires are manufactured - there is a resin that is used in the molding process that keeps the tire from sticking to the mold. Think of it like flour and a baking pan. In most cases the mold is cleaned, but residue can stick and can cause discoloration on tires over time. Typically fades away with time.

Had relatives that worked at a local Firestone plant years ago and they have told me about this in the past. I have seen it on some of my tires over the years.
