Default Lugnuts?

I just bought new rims, and I want to switch over to chrome lugnuts.

Are all threads the same, or should I buy mustang specific lugs?

Would advance have lugnuts?

What should the torque be for the lugs?

dont go to advance or autozone whatever you do. Get gorilla or ??Mcloud?/ SP? I have the autozone ones and they are falling aprt and rusting after only being on a month. and i only drive this car half a dozen times a month on short trips. I asked about this last month and everyone told me gorilla or mcloud, i cant remember the spelling on the second one. look at jegs or summit, places like that.

The gorilla one look pretty good. I may just buy them.

What it the thread size for our cars?

1/2-20?

go on 50resto.com and look up the lugnut package, its like 25 bucks an dit includes these real nice locking lugs that you vcant break the key off because the lug is the lock not just the tip, they are chrome and have lastd a while now and look real good, they also come with chrome valvestems and caps
