Default spacer lug nut question (stupid?) (yes)

hey guys! I bought a set of wheel spacers from a fellow jk-forumer here and I failed to get any lug nuts with them. My question is, does a "standard" length lug nut work with a standard 17" X model rim? is there a special something I should look for when going to pick up some lug nuts? Thanks guys and gals, I realize this is a trivial question but hey, that's what this place is for, right? Thanks in advance.

Matt

1/2 20 lug will work. Standard on a JK.

Are you talking about the nuts that hold the spacer on? Or the lug nuts that hold the wheel on? Your Jeep already has LUG NUTS, right???

What is the cone angle on the stock lug nugs? 45 or 60? This will also be beneficial.

sorry, the lugs to hold on the spacers. I'll probably just have to bring one in to the parts store and make sure it fits. The main concern is if the ends of the lugs that hold the spacers on will not stick out of the hole and hit the rim as it is put on

Why won't the person you got them from send you the nuts? Or, contact Spidertrax to see if you can buy them directly from them. Good luck.
