Ones formulated with petroleum distillates are proven to damage tires. AND this is found right on NO Touch's own website.
They have one the purple bottle Wet N Protect... that one doesnt contain Petroleum distillates and this one doesnt clean... only protects and reples dust and water...
DOH!!!!!!! and guese what? I have like 6 more cans of the Cleaning and protecting one! and only 1 can of the Wet N Protect. I need to go get some more of the Wet N Protect one instead...
I guess I'll go burn off the Red Can on the MINI tires
and save the purple one for the E60.

I like my tires shinny... until I blow $1K and have to replace my tires I'll continue to use them. 
2 years no cracks... sidewalls look good as new.I've also used them on my last Camry tires for 5 years 2 sets of tires... no problems... no signs of cracking... so I'm not too concerned just yet.

I think it is the build up of some wet-tire type dressings that gives the appearance of cracking. When I have experienced this, I quit the wet-tire dressing. Have three containers on the shelf to give or throw away. I use Armor All applied with a sponge block applicator. It is not as shiny, but looks nice enough.
