Default 2005-S40 Lugnut size

Hey Folks, Just bought an 05/S40. New here, but hope to able to contribute. I need new lug nuts and was wondering if anyone knew the exact size.
Thanks in advance.
Rob

Default RE: 2005-S40 Lugnut size

I have a 2005 S40 and the lug bolts are 12mm diameter 1.5mm pitch. The torque on these are only 62 ft/lbs and I have had problems with stripped nuts. Now I always run a die over the threads on the bolts every time I remove the wheels. Following this procedure ensures the nuts will go back on without problem.
