Lug nut size?
I know I've seen this, but can someone tell me what threads the 115 Spiders use on the lugs? I need a set for my new wheels, but the parts store guys just look at me funny when I say Alfa Romeo.....
Thanks!

Don't hold me to it but try a 12mm x 1.5 thread. I am pretty sure that is it.
Best Regards,

Thanks, John. Although my local tire shop wasn't 100% sure, he said the same thing, so I think it's a safe bet.

Just be sure you get the right ones..... There are different lugs for steel and alloy wheels. I just bought a set of alloy and the lugs from my old steel wheels won't work. Check out lug nuts in the IAP catalog to see the different kinds..... GL

lug nuts
Call APE and get a set for $20. No need to pay IAP prices for the alloy wheel nuts.

Thanks, all! Went down to the local Pep Boys and bought a set while my tires were being mounted. They are indeed 12x1.50's. BTW, the car looks cool and different with the Mustang wheels! Much better handling, also.
