Suitable unsaturated waxes may include, but are not limited to C18+ linear alpha olefins (LAOs), LAO dimers formed from C18+ LAOs and having an internal olefin, or any combination thereof. The C18+ LAOs may be C20-C24 LAOs or C24+ LAOs. The rubber blends may be used in forming various rubber articles and in forming at least a portion of a tire, such as a tire sidewall containing a vulcanized rubber blend.
