...Diamondbacks specifically say NOT to use Bleche-white or any type of bleach.

I've been using Bleche-Wite for decades to clean not only white-wall, white-stripe, and white-letter, but even black-wall tires. I've been using tire dressings, as well, for almost as long. No problems on either account.

To the best of my knowledge, Bleche-Wite contains NO BLEACH.

Yet, I silently chuckled whenever I saw vehicles with faint orange specks in the white areas of their tires, which is a dead giveaway that owner had used Brillo pads or equivalent (or anything with steel wool) to clean their tires.

It's not unusual for white "rubber" to go off-color over time. That's why products are made specifically for cleaning tires, and Bleche-Wite isn't the only such cleaner available for public consumption. Packard even recommended the use of tire cleaners.

If a tire discolors as a result of using a product that's intended for cleaning or dressing tires, and that product hasn't been "recalled" for causing such problem, I can only conclude that the affected tire is made of substandard materials.
