In my quest for getting the right look of the 18" wheels on my blue 3 I have acquired most available options for different looks so I decided to do a quick photo shoot to compare.

If you have your wheels looking good please share your photos!
 
Personally I'm going with the chrome acorn lug nuts. They don't photograph as well as they look in person. The shape looks a bit odd in pictures, but in person the many different curves and facets make them catch the light and look a bit more brilliant. With the blue car I really want to bring a bit more chrome look to the wheels to match with the chrome of the car and decrease the darkness of the wheel/tires. So that option I'm happy with.

Right now the car sits with one half with grey center caps and the other side silver, still trying to decide. I'm leaning toward the grey center caps, but would like to see the silver caps with the Tesla Emblem filled in with a grey sticker.
