Arrow stock wheel lugs

What is the wheel lug bolt size for stocks....I am told that they are 12mm by 1.6 and all I see on line is 12mm or 14mm by 1.5. Which is it or am I wrong on all counts? I know the front are longer then rear, so I am confused. Also is 1.5 and 1.6 the actual pitch or is the 12mm the actual thread pitch?

Thanks
Benzino

I dont think the stock lugs are different in length. All of them have the same length and meanie is correct.

benzinoben: are you looking to buy a set of stock lugs?

99 320's had those ugly forged aluminum rims stock. They have really short lugs there litereally 1 inch long front and rear. Hope that helps!

Is this across the board on MB's? The lug bolts on my SL55 seem larger than 12mm...
