Default Need help with what color lugnuts and brand.


Question guys.
I recently purchased a set of wheels with red center caps. I have a 2017 rcf with stock orange calipers and titanium exhaust atm. What lugnuts color would go well with the color scheme with the car? Here is a picture of my wheels, it is brush bronze in color, not full bronze. I guess the picture does not pick up the bronze well. So, orange calipers, brush bronze wheels, red center caps, and titanium blue exhaust.

What color lugnuts, style, and brand will go well with a white rcf with orange calipers. Thanks!

Just my opinion but I think you got too much going on.

4 different colors in and around your wheel well.
I'd strongly recommend considering replacing the red caps and not adding any other colors for lug nuts.
Just my 2 cents.

Hey Eun thank you so much for your reply.
I will probably replace the caps later in the future since replacing them will take time and money. I guess black lugnuts will be the best option or bronze lugnuts?

Black lugnuts safe choice but I like colorful setups. I think red would look good.

Get matching center caps and neo chrome lugs.

I really hope I'm not pulling you away from what you originally wanted/envisioned.
At the end of the day, it's whatever makes you happy when you look back at it.
My opinion was solely to mention what consensus will probably be on the many color setup.
You do you homie.

Yes, or overlay with orange to match the calipers.

Thanks guys for the reply! Hopefully the centercaps are not to red and will match with my orange calipers. Like most of you stated, I will probably go with black lugnuts that is posted by couple of members here! I have never seen these wheels on the RCF before. What do you guys think of the wheels? I like them!

Whichever color you choose, gorilla nuts are always my go to choice in lugnuts. Many colors available. If it was mine, I’d color match the wheels. Please post pix when you’ve decided!

Sure man no problem I will definitely post them when I put them on! Do I need to get an alignment if the specs are the same as stocks? Man can't Wait!

Iconix lugs are the real deal. Don’t settle for a cheap aluminum lug. Spend the money unless budget is tight.
They have some red caps too if you decide to go the red route but black lugs for sure
Like Eun said, a lot of color right there.
Any thought to make calipers red? That would fix issue.

I don't think I have the time to change my calipers to red strictly because I work a lot of hours a week. You guys are the professionals and this is my first time buying a good set of wheels. I think I will settle for iconix but when I tried to order them, the guy stated they had different types of iconix they offer. Might need to do more research on which model iconix. I really love the wheels and I got them today, they look better in person and the quality is really good.

here's where I get my lugs from. Not the absolute cheapest but competitive. Solid company. I’ve bought 3 times from them.

Here is my new wheels. Super light and high quality. This wheel looks awesome in person and get so many stares now. Waiting on iconix black lugnuts and might vinyl my center caps black to match with the lugnuts. What do you guys thinking of black center caps with my overall color scheme.
