Can cars feel love?

Car tires are not always black... think back to first to white wall tires, and then not so long ago there was a trend with tires aimed at import cars where colored bands were put along the tread (usually in yellow or red).

The basic compounds used for tires result in a natural color that is "black." Much like cooper piping tends to be cooper colored. Using other elements that would better take color would not be optimal for the tread at the very least. While still possible, this would ultimately mean compromising many elements of the tires capabilities while at the same time increasing it's cost. I would imagine that tire companies have done market research to determine if people would be interested in paying more for a lesser tire, in the color they might prefer... and that current offerings reflect those results!
