Default larger wheel studs and open ended acorn lugs

picking up some Centerline Telstars
i might as well upgrade the wheel studs while i'm at it and get some open ended lug nuts....

does the Moser 12 bolt rear require a different wheel stud then the factory 10bolt?
what size should i get, 5/8" studs?

how about lugnuts? Centerlines website says the Telstars use an acorn style lugnut. where could i pick up some open ended lugs in that style?
anyone recommend a brand or style over another?

any part numbers or a place to get them from (link)?

thx
Steve

I am no wheel expert, but I thought the Acorn style lug was the stock style lug with the tapered edge. I would assume (yes, I know) that the Moser 12 bolt would already have stronger than stock studs. Unless you have had a problem, I would just reuse what you have. Unless you just want some chrome open ended lugnuts in which case I think just about any of them would do as long as they fit your studs.
