That sounds like the right size. I'd check my packaging but I'm in Atlanta for the next week.

This is the link given to me by Tallboy, and I wanted to confirm the lug size befor ordering. 1/2 20 RH. Yup...This is the correct size, and correct "kit" to buy. Surprised you asked, Chuck is never wrong, but he does mumble from time to time.

The OEM lug nuts are two piece, a stamped metal cover over a steel lug nut, with weak welds that don't tolerate a lot of on/off use. If you do as many tires changes as I have, they will give up on you. If you lose a cover, the OEM lug wrench doesn't fit the core lug nut.

Best to replace all of them with solid one-piece lug nuts, and pick up the added security of the Gorilla lock. BTW, send for the extra key ASAP, don't wait untill you find out you left it in your other tool kit. Ask me how I know all this crap...

I lost my oem lock lug somewhere in my shop and had to get the automotive shop next door to take them off. Man I felt dumb going to a honda shop and asking the mgr if he could take them off for me lol. When I get another set of new lugs I'm going to get the whole lock lug set and order a few extra keys lol.
