Default Black tires with white lettering...How?

Maybe a stupid question but who are you guys doing it? My buddy did it on his car and it wore off within a few weeks. Anyone have a permanent solution? Thanks for the help.

Its done by a white paint pen, look on ebay their cheap as chips and you just paint over the lettering and can freshen up every few weeks to keep it white.

That's what I did, bought a white one. I'm not an artist, my letters looked like something out of a kindergartner's coloring book. I took it all off. No matter how slow I went I couldn't get it to look good. Others have had good luck but I gave up on it.
