New tires are coming soon, along with spacers to make me "hella flush"! haha. soo i need lug nuts to finish it off. im looking for extended ones as my p45r's have a sunkin lug whole. you know what I mean. I'm debating between red or brown. Red will match my calipers. If I did brown i'd probably paint my calipers black. Stock calipers are too tiny to try to show off anyway. So, red or brown? Reds common, but good looking. Brown could be awesome or absolutely ugly

Between red and brown I'd do the red on your car. I did gold on mine with black wheels.

Since your interior is red, I think red lugnuts would be nice.
As youngmoney said, brown would be a bit random. It wouldn't really fit the theme of your car, imo.

i'd say brown. or more subtle and not too eye catching. red is like "look, i'm self conscious, so look at my rims" but brown is like a more mature compliment to your rims.

Not enough of the lug will show to matter.

I'd choose flat black, but that's just me. :)

I'd use brown. It'll end up looking good. Too many things matching can look weird

Between those two choices, I'd go with the red.

I'd go with the rainbow chrome look because I think they can look good on all cars.

But if not those, just get black like Greg said, you're barely gonna notice them anyways with your wheels design.

yeah, I can see where your getting at...

but seeing that he does have white wheels, they'll stand out regardless.

just to give the OP a quick idea on red nutsssss on white wheels..

you guys suck. i cant make up my mind. first it was red. no theres alot of brown. red fading would be awful. im going to hold off until i finish my interior. cant seem to find red suede so i might go with all black leather. if so id get brown.
