what lug nuts

i mounted and balanced my rims and tires yesterday and noticed the lug nuts were not in the box...when i got my other rims (the ones that were damaged and i had to send them back...they where there) now my question is i need to know what type of lug nuts to get...i remember you guys telling me something about them being tapered or something nlike that...the rims are lug centric NOT lug...i need to call pro comp and get the part number so my sisters b/f can order them for me...i just wanna make sure i get the right ones because the lift is going on in 2 weeks. (like i didnt wait long enough!!!) lol...thanks in advance

If the wheels are NOT hub centric, you need the lug nuts with the taper to center the wheel. The nut will have a rounded shoulder facing the wheel, versus a flat shoulder for a hub centric wheel.

The rounded shoulder on the nuts centers the rim.

If it is for your '06, you need 14mm X 1.50 lugs.
