Help! C5 lug nut size?

Hey guys I'm trying to figure out what size lug nuts fit a C5 - particularly a 2003 Z06 if there is a difference. My close friend who lets me autocross his car has beat up his factory lug nuts from changing out the wheels constantly. I want to pick him up a nice set of chromed Gorilla lug nuts but I have no idea what size to get!
thanks in advance!

Very common size, you should have no problem finding them.

One of the good things to look at after you have been on the track is if all the nuts are at the same thread depth. This gives an early warning if you have a nut coming loose. You can't do that with most chrome lug nuts.
