How can I do tire lettering for slick tires that are slick on the sidewalls?

the tires are for a 1:24 scale nissan skyline

and I want to put a nice clean brand name on them, such as sava or yokohama, and I also wanted to have additional writing, like L 17 like when the pit crew labels tires with a marker.

For the actual tire lettering, you would need to use decals or dry transfers....not sure who makes 'em for those brands, though. For the pit crew markings, use a white or yellow gel pen....or you could actually paint it on with a fine brush and acrylic paint.....the pit crews aren't worried about it being neat, just legible!
