I think the best treatment is soap and water and exercise. The flexing of the tire during travel keeps the natural lubricants in the rubber distributed throughout. Or so I have read.
We got some long time tire guys on here who can confirm that.

You are so correct. It's the
natural lubricants in rubber that protect the tires and any so called treatment only inhibits these
natural lubricants from doing their job.

To each his own, but IMHO, if the tires are subject to being in the sun day after day after day...eventually harm will come. I use a treatment to protect them, and although our in house experts disagree with that, Michelin says to use it.

Tom, in all my years in the tire business I never read any where where any tire manufacturer recommended any kind of tire treatments. I try to keep up on tires so could you please provide me with your source. Thanks.
