8-170 mm is how it's listed on the tire website. This is the number of studs and bolt circle size. 
These are MB V-Drive wheels that I have now. 16x8.5 with 285/75R16 tires. All from Discount Tire.

If your looking for the stud size, to get lug nuts, its 14x2.00 for early 99-02, and 14x1.5 03-present I believe. I bought mine from Gorilla Automotive Products - Lug Nuts, Wheel Locks, Auto Security, Wheel Accessories They have stainless ones, that will never rust.

Those are the nuts used on mine. They all have a spline drive, so a special socket is required and makes it harder for someone to "borrow' your wheels.

Oh I didnt go that route,( the spline drive) thats something I would lose, or mess up somehow. It takes a good 3 ton jack to borrow our wheels, or very carefull placement and a very good 2 ton jack. I doubt most carry those anyways. Least on my truck. I also should say, I think the 14x1.5 doesnt actually start untill 05. Im almost 100% sure, that the 99-04 axles are exactly the same, (other then the d50 vs d60) And Im also pretty certain the 05 Ex's would still have the 14x2.00 because they still have the front axle, and leaf setup.
