Depends on the wheel.  The stock steel wheels use the acorn nuts.  Most 
aluminum wheels use "mag" lugnuts, but many have steel inserts which use the 
acorns.

Here's a link you will find useful.  Look under 4 x 4.5" (same as 4 x 
114.3mm) for other vehicles with matching bolt patterns.

http://wheeltool.com/info/4bolt.html

Remember that front wheel drive and many newer import wheels will not work 
because they have too much offset.  For a 6 inch wide wheel, you want the 
offset between 0 to .75" max (19mm).  This gives you about 3.5" to 4.25" of 
backspace allowing enough clearance at the inner & outer rear fender and 
front A-arms.  Otherwise you will rub!

Good luck,
Chris
