Just buy another set, go to just go to autojap or japspares. they used to be off calder park drive!

I use Kitten interior protectant. Wipe it on with a piece of kitchen paper. Lasts a month or so if you don't handle it or get it super-wet.

I think anything like that (even armorall) will soak into the rubber for a band-aid fix.

Go to auto barn and buy plastic dye called "black stuff" funny enough. and that should work a tread or just spray paint it black again but be sure to tape everything up realllllllllly good

Spray paint rubber? That doesn't sounds like a great idea... no offence. =-]

Black Stuff sounds like a good option though!

Supercheap and many of those stores sell vinyl spray colourant. Used for plastic trims and the like. It can also be used on carpets and I think rubber. It is not a paint but a dye which actually gets into the surface. I've used it on interior and exterior trims and found that it does not come off. It also does not dry with a crust at all because it is just a dye. Worth looking into - awesome for dying plastics.

You sure it's not just dried on wax (which is what mine is??)

I've had great success with Meguiars SuperShine. It's for vinyl and rubber and is the first Meguiars product I've ever bought. Needless to say, when it turned my white window trims black and brought out the shine on my dash with the greasy Armourall touch I decided I shall definitely look at Meguiars in future.

Great product. It's a red bottle if you go looking.

TYRE BLACKENER (I use amourall foam) followed by some Silicon spray lubricant

It made my sunroof rubber look like new, and it is nice and supple.
