Alright, I need to buy some locking lugs for my new wheels, and found some at JCwhitney, but dont know what size I need. Im told I need the same size lugs as stock, so what are the measurements of the stock lugs on an 04?

Thanks

12X1.5 for the treads.
Round or cone shape depend on the rims you have.

make sure the new lugs will fit the holes in the new wheels. the stock lugs are bigger than the holes for some of the aftermarket rims out there. you might need to get slim lug nuts.

i have gorilla lug nuts, they are good. i dont think i have locking ones (if they make those), but you need a special attachement to the wrench to be able to unscrew them. so i guess in a way they are locking. ask whoever you got the wheels from how big the holes are and if you need slim lugs for them.

^^ I have gorilla too, they do use that "key" but I think it's more of a universal key... so I got Mcgards.

well the guy gave me his invoice from when he originally bought the wheels a few years back (he keeps all that stuff) and it says tuner lugs 12 x 1.5. I found the gorilla lugs you're talking about on JCwhitney and I THINK they are what I need. The holes definately dont look like regular lugs will fit
