Question blackening raised white letters

The tires I'm about to purchase come in raised white lettering only, how can I blacken the lettering permanently?
I've used black magic markers in the past but it fades from the sunlight in a year or two.

thanks

Have them mounted with the White Lettering on the inside.

I agree. 99.9% of white letter tires have raised black letters on the other side.

That's what I did. White letters in, black letters out:
