The usual size for wheel nuts (in UK at least) is 19mm or 3/4".

Re: Wheel nut size

19mm or 3/4" on all of my Ford's. The original nuts on my Escort had chrome covers on them that would eventually come off leaving the steel nut bare. Then the correct size became 18mm or leave on of the chrome covers jammed inside the larger socket. Mine got that way when the cover came off the nut, which forced me to have two sockets to remove the nuts.
