Studs are Jaguar only that I know of. (1/2-20 double ended threaded with a shoulder)

The nuts are 1/2-20.

Yup, I've never found any generic/aftermarket lug nuts that work properly.

The thread size is common but the length and diameter of the shank isn't.

Hi,
here's a link to the thread I started about the new Maxilite Kent rims sold by Moss Motors etc and the issues I had finding lug nuts to work with them.
I cover the different kinds of factory Jaguar lug nuts and the only aftermarket ones I found available which might help you.
I think the Weld Racing ones would work on factory alloy rims ( Kent or Pepperpot ). The steel with separate hubcap rims and the Dayton wires both use different styles.
All are 1/2-20 thread.

Cheers,
Brian
