Most Nissans in general use the same lug nuts.

I just had to replace a lug nut on my NX2000 and as far as I can tell all Nissan’s use the same size...

1.5

You can get generic ones at most any auto parts store...

im pretty sure all nissans as well as some other cars have the same size lugs nuts which i think you can find under the size: 12mmx1.25...

someone correct me if im wrong but it think thats the size.

If it makes you feel any better I am fighting a problem with lug nuts too...

Completely swapped out my struts this weekend (great drive to work this morning!) only to find that the front wheel has a lovely little lug nut that has been completely cross threaded. Why is it when you go to do some sort of repair you always come across something else that needs attention. Guess I have to remember my travel adage that 'no matter what something is going to go wrong'....

Anyway, good luck with it all!

oh just fucking great... so i go to take the rims off, 3 rims off, 4 rim, 2 nuts strip, we try everything, and i mean everything so finally my dad tries to like peel off the nut, fuck the nuts all up and still we are nowhere with it, so i need to goto some shop to have them take them off and they will prolly fuck the wheel up. :(

I don't really know but I would think you should be able to replace all four bolts and lug nuts once are able to get the old lug nuts off... I think you should be able to buy everything at most any autoparts store...

I hear your pain, believe me. Hope you are able to get it fixed and there is no damage to your wheel.

I had both Advance Auto parts and Autozone tell me that they couldn't get the studs. I ended getting some from a friend that works at a very large distributor in Nashville.

Can you use the same studs as a Sentra se-r? I know you can get these studs at autoparts stores in Oregon.

i didn't even get the pleasure of stripping them myself... just out now to fix someone else's foolish mistakes... how hard is it to NOT cross-thread a nut!
