Does electricity flow through Metal or rubber?
The type of 'effect' you have in mind isn't clear. -- Rubber is commonly used where electrical insulation is needed, so it's pretty certain that you're not going to encounter a case where rubber is conducting current. -- If you put a piece of rubber in an electric toaster, it will definitely burn. But that's not the effect of the electricity. It's the effect of the heat developed by dissipating the energy of an electric current. -- Electricity will not make rubber jump down, spin around, glow, vibrate, communicate, hum, ionize, or become magnetic. So I would say that electricity does not affect rubber. I could be wrong.

Rubber on the tires is an electrical insulator. No electricity can be conducted from the ground up through the car because of the tires, otherwise a downed power line in some water, with the metal car - yikes! All would be conductive, except the rubber tires.
