Why are car tires not made of a color other than black?

I understand that carbon is black so we end up with black tires. But black has max conductivity, so wouldn’t there be a possibility of overheating and bursting? Why don’t we have coat it with coloring agents so it’s with a color that’s thermally less conductive?
