I am wanting to put new lug nuts on my truck but I'm not good with sizing threads. Can someone tell the size/type I need to buy for the sotck lugs? I don't run center caps so I'm wanting to clean them up a bit.

OEM lug nut threading is 14mm X 1.50 with a 60 Degree Tapered Seat.

I stock several chrome lug nuts in this size if that's what your looking for. I have the hex type and the splined type. Also have wheel lock sets. Let me know if can help and I will shoot you a price for a set shipped to you.

BTW, for anyone else who might be doing a lug nut replacement on their truck, these do not fit. They narrow at the end and actually fit inside the stock wheel hole verses applying pressure to it to hold it on.

Very sorry to hear about your inconvenience. If you still need lug nuts, let me know. I can verify that mine work with factory wheels.

Yea, by the time you got back to me on the PM I had already ordered them so now I'm kind of stuck. I have another set coming as he is just swapping them out for me.

Yes, very sorry for the delay in getting back to you again. At least he is willing to swap you out! If you need anything from me, just let me know and I do what I can to help you out.

For anyone in the future thinking of losing the center caps and stock lug nuts you will need 14mm x 1.5" 13/16 bulge acorn nuts (ordered from vendor above).
Here is what it looks like with the new nuts.

Thank you very much for the purchase! Wheels look great on your truck without the center caps!
