Lightbulb Need input.. Rim and lug color dilemma =/

Hey guys,
As you all know, matching rim color and lug color so that it flows is tricky sometimes. It was easy with my gunmetal rims + black lugs. Now I'm planning on getting bronze te-37 replicas (JLB Apollos from JLB) and I'm unsure of what color lugnuts I should pair with them? I already have black extended, but I prefer to switch it up.

My options are: blue, black, red, or neochrome

IMPORTANT: My IS is colored SGM (smokey granite mica)



Thanks for the input!!

i thought red lug nuts would go great with bronze, but its hard to see it on an SGM.

nahh black is boring, tbh thats why i asked lol. i like input of others thats all .

I've decide to go with neochrome open-endeds, and the teal-blue looks good on black/white/blue cars, cant see it really on the SGM unless I get project mu bbks too
