Got anti theft wheel nut on ebay , but they don't fit ...

Saw 12 x 1,5 on box & fit cerbera on the ad

I've check 125 on the threadtool but could you confirm that I need 12 X 1,25 ?

Thx

As the hubs are from an American Jeep I believe they are 1/2" UNF

no not the ame as chimaera.

The wheel studs aren't metric, they are 1/2 inch UNF (or maybe UNC can't remember) as per the second post.

UNified I believe - I think it was a wartime thing when the UK and US invented a thread standard that they would all use. Might be bks though.
