Lug nuts size??

Hey guys, sorry if this is in the wrong area of the forum...

My wife has a 2009 H3 Hummer that we bought used. When we bought it, it was slightly lifted and had large offroad tires installed [it looks pretty awesome]. She wants to put some spiked aluminum lug nuts on it to complete the Mad Max look of the truck, which I think is a great idea. But the lug nuts come in different sizes, of course. So how do I find out what size we need? Since the vehicle has been modified, I'm not sure if the original H3 lug nut measurements are correct anymore. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Adam, unless you front and rear hubs have been modified, and I would guess that are not. the Lug Nut thread size for your Hummer is M12-1.5 You mentioned that it has large tires on it, are the wheels stock?? if they are, you only need to find someone that sells the SPIKE Lugs for the Hummer in M12-1.5

Sir Nuke, thank you so much for the reply! At first, I wasn't sure if the wheels were stock or not. But after you posted this reply, I realized that they have the same plastic "Hummer hub cap" in the center of the wheel, so they have to be the stock wheels with just bigger tires. We're going to take your advice and order the M12-1.5's. Thanks so much for the help! I'll post a pic once they're installed!
