Need Opinions

I have a set of the 21" optional wheels that I've been going to powdercoat green and black. I had to remove the fake plastic bolts from them so I've been looking for replacements. I've since decided to tap the holes and use steel bolts that I can coat to match the wheels. Now I'm trying to decide between two styles of bolts. I'd like a few opinions to help me decide which to use or see if anyone has a better idea. So far I have a capscrew and a button head.

I think the button head looks better personally! Maybe you should incorporate a poll into the thread if you can after posting. Will make it easier to keep track and helps coax others to chime in haha.

Edit: Hit "Thread Tools" at the top of the post to add a poll feature if you decide to do it

The one that is flush (flat) looks as if it came with the rim.

Plus the button head would be easier to prep for powder coat than the cap screws.

The buttoned (round) kinda makes it look like you screwed the wheels together, agree that the flat one looks more natural, no poll needed,lol

Button head looks best, if appearance is your only concern...

actually neither...I would not do the 21" wheels to just pay a lot more for the tires let alone go with a wheel that had a faked two piece design which is inherently weaker than a one piece...LOL Like the dude with the spiked hair said man.... some spiked custom bolts might set off the fact its funny to have the holes there in the first place.....and yes its a fro hawk...lol https://www.bing.com/images/search?q...rome&FORM=IGRE

IMO the button head gives it a cleaner look and like they were originally part of the wheel
