Default Lug nuts?

Finally got my Rough Country leveling kit on. Will try to get pics up tonight. 2 of the factory garbage lug nuts finally died. What is the factory thread size and anybody had any luck with the black ones on eBay?

Factory size are 9/16" x 18 Thread Acorn. Gorilla lugs are awesome, I have the chrome ones 1.4" in length. They have black ones available, they are 1.9" long. Here is where I got mine from. These are solid, my stockers were all swelled and distorted.

7/8 is the stock lug nut size, so go with them. That refers to the size of the lug nut wrench that you will use. The ones I got were 13/16.
