How to get overspray off tires??

How can I get primer overspray off of my tires? It's not very much (they were covered) but it's there and they won't gloss up as well. I was hesitant to start taking strange chemicals to rubber so I thought I would see if there was a good way to do it.

Thanks in advance.

I would think a wire brush, or maybe an SOS pad with some soap would take it off, that and a little elbow grease!

Did you try Westley's Bleache-White and a brush?

Clay bar? :sillylol:

Actually it might work, but I'd use some old clay if you have any.
