I only know of some bike tires that are blue. But why isn’t it more common to find tires in different colors other than black?
In: Chemistry
Fun fact! Since people have already given good answers. The classic white walled tires were initially designed that was for entirely practical reasons, not looks. The blackening compounds that strengthened the rubber also made it less supple. Keeping the sidewalks of the tire as the plain white rubber made for a softer tire, and kept the more resilient rubber on the treads where most of the wear occurs.
