Default Lug Nut size?

Easy question, but I'm overseas and can't get to my car right now. Getting my wheels and lug nuts powder coated, so I want to buy a teflon socket. Anyone know the size of the lugs?

Thanks!

GOOGLE broken overseas? 12X1.5 that's the thread count, 3/4 or 19 mm. I or GOOGLE has no idea if you have stock lug nuts or not and apparently you don't ether. how did you take them off for powder coating?

Haven't taken them off. If you had read the post, you would realize I am planning ahead, and am not home. I guess there was a reason you were on my ignore list. I will put you back there. Please do me the courtesy of doing the same.

So quick to reply with a smart *** answer without reading the post. But then again, this is not your first time doing this.

The OEM lug nuts are indeed 3/4 or 19MM (Both sockets will fit). After market lug nuts may be different socket sizes. The OEM lugs are really cheap and have a tin sleeve or something over the actual nut. I would definitely look for solid lug nuts like Gorilla or Mc Guards before powder coating the OEM's.
