It last longer doesn't get overspray on your wheels that catches the brakes dust. Doesn't click up the sides of your car and gives a nice gloss. And one bottle has lasted me years. Not like a can that does 8-12 tyres

I used Armour All previously and now just use the SuperCheap stuff, applied with a sponge. Works really well.

OP is asking "what is the best tyre shine?" not "what do you use to clean your tyres" :roll:

That Perl stuff seems to be the winner.

OP requested an opinion. So people will recommend what they think is best - i.e. what they use based on price, ease of use and results etc. :roll: There is no definitive or correct answer.
