I used that old trick many times in the past with my old 4x4s without any problems, but they were ford broncos, not a BMW X5... Maybe I'm not thinking about it enough, but how does the tireshine in the wheel wells get on the brakes? I've never seen or heard of that problem and have seen many people keep the wheel wells car show clean with tire shine applied with every wash...

Any tips/tricks or better options to keep the mud from sticking? I had so much mud stick in my rims and furthermore freeze to the rims that I couldn't drive over 30mph without shaking all over the place and I couldn't hose it out... Had to scrape it out of my rims with a stick before going on the highway home.

Also, I found a great deal on a set of 18" wheels with brand new condition michelin energy m+s tires! So I'll at least be better equipped next time I go to the camp. (as I'll be going there often this year)
