    Hi

    If the lettering is recessed you can use a cocktail stick with a small amount of paint on it to fill in the lettering.

    If the lettering is of the solid type then you could try a bit of dry brushing over the lettering.

    I would suggest doing either with the tyre on the wheel, as if not then putting tyre on after could wreck your efforts

    Also try this when you're done put a coat of klear on after as this will protect your work and give that "showroom" wheel finish

    Hope all of the above is of some help to you.
