Lug Nut Size And Type Guide (Chart With Most Manufacturers) (2024)

Updated on July 9, 2023

Wheel lug nuts are an underappreciated piece of the car. They may be simple and cheap, but holding the wheels in place is far from a simple task. With this in mind, we’ve created this comprehensive guide on lug nut sizes and types, as well as charts with manufacturer-recommended sizes.

There are 4 common lug nut types: cone seat, bulge cone seat, under hub cap, and spline drive. Lug nut sizes differ between the years and manufacturers, with the most used being: M12x1.5mm, M14x1.5mm, M14x2mm metric, and 7/16″-20, 1/2″-20, 9/16″-20 standard.

Lug Nut Markings Explained

Lug Nut Size And Type Guide (Chart With Most Manufacturers) (1)

Lug nuts are predominantly sized in metric dimensions rather than inches. There is some overlap between metric and imperial sizes, but I wouldn’t recommend interchanging them. Lug nuts have an important job and you want that lug fit to be perfect.

Lug nuts have two markings: thread diameter and thread pitch. In the example of M14x1.5, the thread diameter is 14mm, meaning it matches a 14mm stud. The thread pitch of 1.5mm indicates the distance from one thread ridge to another. The smaller the number, the denser the thread is.

Lug Nut vs Lug Bolt

Lug nuts and lug bolts share the thread diameter and thread pitch metrics. However, while a lug nut is just that – a nut, a lug bolt is merged with the stud.

Cars that use lug nuts have studs built into the wheel hub. To mount a wheel, you stick it on the studs and thread the lug nuts on. Lug bolts are 2-in-1, so you have to thread them through the wheel and into the hub.

Functionally, lug nuts and lug bolts do the same thing, but what you need to know is that lug bolts have an extra measure – length. With lug bolts, you’ll see a marking like M14x1.5x17mm, with 17mm indicating thread length. The most common bolt lengths are 17mm, 19mm, and 21mm.

Lug Nut Types

Not all lug nuts are the same, and next to the size and thread pitch, you also need to think about how it fits against the wheel. The lug nut seat and the wheel hole have to match perfectly, otherwise, the lug could unscrew over time.

There are 6 primary types of lug nuts:

  • Conical Seat
  • Spherical Seat
  • Flat Seat
  • Mag Seat
  • Extended Conical Seat
  • Tuner Nut

The conical seat tapers down like a cone, while the spherical seat is more rounded. The flat seat does not go into the wheel but sits flat atop it. The mag seat is also flat, but it screws into the hole rather than on top. The extended conical seat tapers like a normal cone lug, but then extends with a cylinder. Lastly, we have the tuner nut which generally has a shallow cone seat.

Most lug nuts are tightened with hex wrenches, but nowadays we see more star and hex sockets.

Lug Nut Buyer’s Guide

Lug Nut Size And Type Guide (Chart With Most Manufacturers) (4)

The most reliable way to purchase lug nuts is to go by the VIN number or unscrew one of the lug nuts from the car and inspect it. While we did our best to create a comprehensive and accurate list of lug nut sizes, it may not be 100% accurate.

The VIN number is located on the lower left side of the windshield and in your vehicle’s documentation. You can use this to reliably find parts for your car or truck. When you unscrew a lug nut, you can see the type of seat it has and buy the same one. I wouldn’t recommend measuring the lug nut as you won’t be able to accurately measure the thread pitch.
