How about not using any of them?

The biggest strength of Helvetica is its biggest weakness as well; it works with everything. Almost anything in any context can be written with Helvetica. In most cases though, it's not a particularly intersting choice, I could say, it's a bit boring to see Helvetica everywhere. Of course there are places where Helvetica is a very good fit; the New York Subway is one example of that in my opinion.
