so i kno this is probably a dumb question... but i tried searching it everywhere and came up with no direct answer. i have my rims in storage till spring. and of course the chunky a** lugs that come with the stock hubbie rims wont fit and would look horrible on rims. i need tuner lugs. so i spotted out some nice lugs that would go nicely with my rim choice but i dont kno if there is a universal size or a specific size we need. i dont have the time to take the rim all the way to the tire shop just to find out.... any one know and me if this is dumb but i gotta kno before i miss out on these lugs! thanks nico fam

Bump this thread, i figgured it out... But it b cool to see posted detail pics of everyones rim, break, lug and center cap choices anyway

I believe that the lug nut size you are looking for is 12 X 1.25

Quoted for emphasis to anyone else happening upon this thread. It's really important to get lug nuts with seats that match your wheels.

So im in this same predicament, i have rims and now that winter's over i want to put them on, but stock lugs wont fit, did you go with the 12x1.25 lug nuts?
and just a side note, did you happen to have to get centric rings for the wheels?

12x1.25mm is the correct thread pitch for the lug nuts.

Whether or not you need centering rings is wheel specific. If it is a hubcentric rim with a bore that matches your car's then obviously the rings are not needed. In any other case it is the safest bet to use them even though some will argue it's not 100% necessary in all instances.

usually when you get tuner lugs, hubcentric rings arent really needed, but if you feel some sort of wobbling at high speeds then hubcentric rings should be used.
