small brush and take time you could mask most of it odd but would take gaes todo whole lot
if you get to excited and get it everywere you could scrpae off using a vblad
dont slit the tyre though

The pens work fine mate but if you use the paint take your time an you'll be fine. Make sure you have the same tyres all around too lol.
I reckon it will look good with on your motor too :)
