Fighting Dry Rot

I`m starting to get the beginning stages of dry rot on the tires of my `31 Chevy. I was wondering if anyone has a product they really like that sort of counters/slows dry rot?

Obviously, the best solution is to drive the car more but due to reliability issues it`s not always running and ends up sitting months on end. The car is always kept in the garage and I do roll it around every now and again.

From my poking around on Autopia Car Care the only product I really found was McKees RV Tire Cleaner.

Does anyone have a product they really like or recommend that is petrochemical and silicone free?

Thanks

for cleaning the McKee`s product is great. I use the regular version not he RV version followed by McKee`s tire dressing or coating. With that being said having been in the tire business for most if my life I can tell you it won`t slow it down much. How old are the tires??
 
Hmm, no harm in the McKee`s anyway though.

I`m not sure how old they are, I`d have to ask my grandad but probably somewhere around 10 years.
