No idea if it works as I haven't tried it.
Apparently you just brush it into the tyre, leave for a couple of hours and you have softer, grippier tyres  :scratch

Yep basically it breaks down something in the tyre to make them softer

I can't imagine it does much for stability or tyre life  :surrender

It would be interesting to know what the tyre manufactures say about it! And I wonder if it would invalidate your insurtance should you have an off due to tyre life or stability being affected!! :scratch

FFS man, don't put WD40 on your brake discs, it'll just evaporate! I'd use proper ********** if I were you  :thumb_up
