You need to create two types of materials, a Lambert for the tire and a Blinn for the wheel. Select each material once and notice they show up in the Work Area tab in the Hypershade window.
To apply these materials to the wheel and tire:
Now concentrate on the tire. To give the tire the tread look you must apply a texture to the Bump Mapping attribute of the Lambert material.

Finally you need to change the bump value for the Lambert material.
