Default Lug Nuts?

I have just bought some Moto Metal rims for my 04 Dodge ram 1500 reg cab...and need to buy new lugs. I think the thread is 9/16 but am not sure. My rims are a 5 bolt pattern. I am wondering if anyone knows what a good set of lug are and if that is the correct size? And how long they should be? I would prefer black or black chrome, but will settle for chrome.
Thanks

I cleaned out Advance auto parts warehouse of their 9/16ths deep well lugs. Took me three weeks but I finally got them all! I've got some procomps and man was it hard finding 20 lugs that were deep well 9/16ths locally. Might be easier getting them online if the shipping isn't an ungodly amount.

Took me two weeks to find them locally. Every advanced auto parts, autozone, and pep boys were out. Had everything you can imagine but 9/16 lug nuts. I was pissed as hell. 10 stores and no nuts at all. Not one at all. Found them at some rim store.My locking nuts are just like what jays got, but chrome. And $25 cheaper.

I know you already ordered yours, but for anyone else, I got McGard lugs for my truck from Amazon. They are about $10 for 4 lugs, so you can get enough for your truck for about $50. I like them and they aren't the cheap ones from the dealer with the thin metal covers over regular lugs. The model number for them is 64008 in case anyone needs them. 9/16" thread size, and 7/8" socket size, which is the size of the wrench that came with my truck.

I've never been able to find them locally, the 9/16" isn't a big deal, but the length is my problem. This place has about everything you could think of. I'm considering the bullet shaped ones as my lugs and center caps are due for a replacement soon...
