I just replaced my rusty lug nuts with these stainless 304 lugs.

Be aware not all 1/2" by 20 lug nuts are the same. There are more than one taper out there. Very important to get correct taper.

Good point. When I replaced mine, I took a lug nut off the Montana with me for comparison.

Are you talking about the taper of the threads or where it seats into the wheel?

Where it seats into the wheel. I think the standard is 60 degrees but there are other tapers.

When using stainless always use anti-seize. The stainless will weld itself to a steel wheel lug and you will never get the nut off.

For those various reasons, I bought mine from Tredit since they supplied Keystone with the wheels.

Be very careful using anti-seize or any other lubricant on lug nuts, as the applied torque will be much greater due to the lack of the expected friction at the threads, and you will over torque the nuts and ultimately break the studs.
