What size/dimensions with thread count/ are our lug nuts on the wheels?

[TOBASH]

I want to change to "closed end" wheel lug nuts in order to reduce corrosion and "frozen lug nut" issues. I live by the Atlantic Ocean, and oil and anti-seize require periodic re-application.

What dimension lug nuts do we use on our HMMWV's?

TIA

EDIT - I have searched acorn nut, lug nut without success

I slipped McMaster-Carr vinyl caps over the threads on the wheels to do the same thing. I think they cost me about $6 for 100 caps.

Nice alternative. I will consider them BUT I'm still on a search for the lug nut dimensions.

I like your idea though.
