What do you mean by what seat they need??? Most lug nuts are either a shank nut or a conical seat. I run some 12x1.5 conical seat lugs that have a littl 3/8 shank on them. I mainly run them just because they have that extra shank that give you extra thread on the nut itself.

Mine have caps on them but I found out very easily that a pair of pliers can pop the caps off and make them open end.

Just your typical conical seat, nothing special. Stock lug studs are 12mm x 1.5
