im had the same prob. first time u get in mud it comes off.
the only way our tires will turn blue is if the mud dries on the tires and it will leave a blue film on them. i dont know of any other reason.
i've had them in mud several time all ready and it was the first time it happened i just wondered
The blue comes off. It is just residual remnants of the mud that was on the tire. It does not happen to my tires every time, but sometimes it does. depends on the mud. I use to degreaser at the local car wash and it comes off fine with that. If it is stubborn, a little stronger degreases like Grease Lightning or Simple Green will remove it quickly.

degreaser may be bad for your tires.

its because tires have a special compound thing. If it is gone and the side walls flex, your tires will crack open. you can tell if the compound is coming of. because you tires will turn grey.

im not sure if degreaser will harm you tires but i know that rim cleaner will.
so im just saying.
