White lettering

The white lettering on the outside of the tires. They're starting to fade a bit on mine. Is there any way to prevent it or is it just going to come off after a while? Is it also possible to get them re-done?

depending on u're cleaning schedule, they're eventually going to dull...and if not dull, they will start to crack a bit. u could try painting them u'reself, if u have a steady hand and some white paint, but i dont know how long it would last as the tire flexes and moves.

this just goes along with general tire color fadeing and becoming dull and browish....

From: outside Detroit, where it's safer
Soft scrub with bleach and fine steel wool works much better.
