Which lug nuts do I need?

Hi all.
I just picked up a set of 5 spoke alloy Ranger wheels 16"x7" and need to know which lug nuts I need and where I can buy them other than ford.

Is anybody familiar with the lug nuts for these wheels? Chrome? Black? price for all 20?
Thanks.

Any idea which model Rangers these wheels came on? Edge, FX4?
If I knew what model/years they were available on it should be helpful when buying the lug nuts.
Thanks again.

You can use basically any 60 degree 1/2-20 lug nut...

I just got some spline drive lug nuts and LOVE them. plus it makes it hard to steal wheels:

http://www.amazon.com/Gorilla-Automotive-21183HT-Diameter-Chrome/dp/B001O06KF4/ref=wl_it_dp_o_npd?ie=UTF8&coliid=I11MSSP2MUI0UZ&colid=1COB5XE3JW6EK http://www.amazon.com/Gorilla-Automotive-21183HT-Diameter-Chrome/dp/B001O06KF4/ref=wl_it_dp_o_npd?ie=UTF8&coliid=I11MSSP2MUI0UZ&colid=1COB5XE3JW6EK




but like FULLSCALE said, 1/2x20 with 60 degree conical end
