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.

I had this happen (not to the extreme it seems you have on your photos) and mine went away after a few weeks.

THIS exactly...Maybe it's a reaction of the tire black the dealer out on at pdi??...has not reoccurred.

You sure it was just "mud"?

The tyre shine product I used before turned the tyres beige over time, FYI.

I noticed this on my son's scooter, as well as my Polaris Ranger. Not sure if it has to do with the mud/heat but I haven't seen that until this year...

This happens all the time to the various KO2s on my trucks over the years, when the hunting lease is muddy. It goes away after a while.

I've seen that blue before when the white lettering on the tires started to wash off.
