Default Trim Rings...now what?

I just put the trim rings on my steelies on the Box, and I need a little help.

First, what size lugs do I need as I want to replace stock with chrome.

Second, what can I put over the ugly center hub? Any thoughts and suggestions would be appreciated.

Here is what I did... it took some steel, a little welding and (4) 6" diameter pieces of stainless plate.

Those centr pieces look suweet. I am going with the diamond plate look (floor mats, cargo mat and mud flaps). The rings give it a nice look, but diamond plate center pieces would just kick butt. How are they fastened on? What size nut / cap does it take? I can see I just need to break down and order a new sheet of diamond plate.

Again, very nice look.

Default Still lookin'

Does anyone have any ideas on where I can get a center cap? The only ones I can find are for the center of hub caps, which is not what I need. Something like the cops use, just enough to protect the hubs, and give a little bling. Need to style it up with the diamond plate and chrome lugs.

Thanks all.

the size you need is M12-1.50 , I just bought some Tuner lugs for my new Wheels that are on the way , and this is the correct size for your wheel studs , and you can get them cheap at Autozone, I have the steelies as we speak with the rings and crome lugs , Hope this helps
