One of those soft wire brushes like a toilet brush or something would probably be good without scratching.

It really depends on what the substance is. If it is a tar like sticky goo, try using a degreaser. If it is brake dust spray some spray 9 on it and let it sit for a few minutes and pressure wash off.

try goo-gone, you can get the spray stuff, or the wipe-on. if the black stuff wont come off, it's probably tar. if it's just in cracks, i'd recommend getting wire wheel cleaner, that stuff works like a charm, but it's a bit harsh on metals.

On my steelies, to get rid of the tire shine that got baked on, I used oven cleaner immediately after some spirited driving, while they were hot. It was gross.
