We bought water based paint that was in solid blocks and crushed them, and mixed with water as best we could, to create a watery paste that we could spread an use to transfer around the paper with the letter on it.
Once we got a decent texture, we put the paint mixture in the letters, making sure to spread a fair bit and leave enough so that it could transfer onto the bike wheel. We then removed the tape surround the letter and ran the big through the paint.
This was successful as the paint spread around the paper and bike wheel creating the bike tread pattern. It was an added bonus as the paint from the letter didn't mix to much and kept most of its original colour.
