12 mm is just a shade under a 1/2 inch at .472 inch. 1/2 inch is 12.7 mm. Sort of depends on how much larger than 12 mm the hole in the wheel is. I know the hole is larger than the stud since they go on easily without catching any threads but don't know how much larger they are.

You also need to identify the wheels a little bit better. Simply 5 star is not quite enough.
Go here to see choices.

See page 45 and 46.
The stud hole ID on a QX3 is a minimum of .590, but less than .660. I assume the others follow suit, but that's all I had loose to check.
These wheels are hub centric, so the hub ID is also important.

Based on both of your info, .472 to the .590-.660 sound like they should fit fine.
Thanks guys.
