When Michelin came back into F1 one of the things they offered was to supply tyres in team colours. So Ferrari wouls have been Ferrari red, Renault French blue, jaguar Green, Mclaren silver etc etc.
it fell through though Shame it could have looked "cool".

This however, just is silly

Tires are black from the additives put in the mix

Modern chemicals can now introduce any colour they want and NOT adversely affect the tyre performance.

Would putting paint on them affect performance?

I coat my tires with NOS because they're faster that way.
