I'm ordering some rivets for my build and would like to know which ones to choose.

Aluminum head with aluminum nail or Aluminum head with steel nail? thanks
 
Speaking from common sense only, since I haven't actually used this kind of rivets before, wouldn't steel rust? Aluminum seems to make the most sense to me.....then again....the "nail" comes out doesn't it?

Guess I'd like to know too.
