Find the following section at the top of your POV file:
#declare Color0 = #if (version >= 3.1) material { #end texture {
pigment { rgb <0.301961,0.301961,0.301961> }
finish { ambient AMB diffuse DIF }
#if (QUAL > 1)
finish { phong 0.5 phong_size 40 reflection 0.08 }
Change the reflection value at the end to 0.0. Instant flat black. Doing
this will make ALL black parts flat black, but you should (I haven't tried
this myself) be able to copy the color definition, give it a new number
(like 99) and then edit your tires to use that color instead of the standard
black. The parts you'd want to modify can be found under the #declare
xxxx_dot_dat = union { section of the POV file (where xxxx is the name of
your model).
If you'd like to see what color this yields have a look at any of the fire
apparatus on my site.
