I know the size is m12x1.5 , but on mcgard's website they ask for length. What is the correct length? It's a 93 if that matters. Can't stand the stock lugs on my fikses

I like my "spline drive" lug nuts. They look good and provide some extra security, too. I don't like the standard "puzzle lock" lug nuts, because there's only one per wheel, so they look bulky and unbalanced. These are Excaliber "Tuner Kit" IK303 (12 x 1.50 mm).

Much depends on the wheel stud length and the wheel used. I'd think Fikse are 'bulge seat' so remove maybe 3 nuts from a wheel and measure from the 'bulge seat' to the end of the stud. Add an additional dimension to the nut so that they couldn't bottom in the nut. If you've stock nuts now you should be able to calculate length just measuring them and determining additional length required so as not to bottom and allow socket/key to be used. I believe all McGard M12X1.5 'bulge seat' are the 1.45 length when buying 'HEX'. McGard 'Spline Drive' appear to be 1.24. It seems maybe odd that I didn't see a 3/4(19mm) Spline Drive installation tool. Might complicate changing a road-side flat.
'HRR' - is your installation tool a 'double HEX' (3/4 & 13/16)
Amazon has an interesting 'BLACK' Spline Drive offering with 'Dual-HEX' - I've never used them
