How come black is such a common color for bike tires?
Sure road tires sometimes come in different colors, but when it comes
to the average bike, the tires are almost always black.
Personally I think it looks way better with ex yellow or green tires!

Why do you think, car tires are black? Do you think the bicycle
industry have more money than the car industry, so that they can
develop colored tires, that are vastly superior to the black tires? And
do you think, the bicycle industry keeps that invention as a secret to
the car industry?
You have gotten an answer about, how carbon black improves tires.
Colored tires are mostly made because of the looks. But since cars
always have black tires, they must be better. I remember, that many
years ago, I read, that colored car tires were on their way. Even
transparent tires would be a possibillity. But I havent seen any yet.
