Ok,since some of us are purists,what was the correct size for lugnuts?

Since there are some of us here that are purists,what was the correct size for lugnuts on the GS's? I've sometimes heard 3/4 or 7/8? Which one is correct?

 

Carl-

Just measured one of my originals off my '71 - 3/4"

 

3/4

 

The originals were capped acorns in style too.

 

Thank you guys! Nowadays,with all the manufacturers out there,the sizes can vary.

I kind of thought that 3/4 was the correct size,but I wanted a second opinion.

 

Carl....I would buy the repro (in stainless steel ) from Cars.

 

We have those ourselves.

 

Thanks Korrie! Since you guys mentioned it, I put one of the first sets that CARS produced on my Stage 1 and the best thing is that they are in stainless steel. No more rusted lugnuts,thank God! :TU:
