I have bought some draglites for my Fury and they are off a 55 Chevy, are the studs the same size as a mopar.

well, the Chevy is a 4.75" PCD, are they unilug or something?

No, Chevy is 4 3/4"PCD, Mopar and Ford is 4 1/2"PCD, if you are talking about Weld wheels then they are drilled for both patterns.

I'm sorry i clearly did'nt phrase the question correctly.
What i want to know, is will the wheel nuts be any good for my Fury.
The wheels do have dual pcd

Large stud Mopar is 1/2" bolt size, having had a quick look at Moroso's site they only list 7/16" studs for GM use, so it dosn't look like your nuts will be the right size. Bit surprised by that I would have expected GM to use 1/2" also.

I think thats right John all the early chevys that I owned were 7/16"

The guy said it was 7/16 but it seemed small to me as well, which is why i asked

Apparently Roadrunner on the A610 near the old Commodore site do a good range of wheel nuts and not expensive. I was recommended to go there for the unilug washers for me slot mags. Not sure if they'll have reverse threads but "Mister T" sells them for sure. He advertises in Custom Car line ads and is on the NSRA forum.
