If you're looking for lugnuts, just go down to Pep Boys and get this:




That's the McGard Part# 64002. You won't be disappointed. I've got them on my car, and I was just in a Pep Boys yesterday and saw they were $7.95 for a 4 pack, so if you get 20 of them it'll cost you 40 bucks. They also have some locking lugs available.

Here's a link to the McGard website with info on them:

Thanks, but I'm going to longer studs.

Still looking for the knurl size.

I didn't know knurles had sizes. I've heard (and made) "full knurles" before, but never seen one with a 509 designation. Must be an OD, I guess...

Technically, the studs are splined; but, some idiot in the world gave it a "size" designation so if I don't use their terminology they just sit there and go .
