We bought some hotwires for our 6cylinder TE Cortina and we need some long shanked wheel nuts. Does anyone know what the wheel stud thread size is (not sure exactly what its called)? Is it the same as similar aged falcons? Thanks for your help.

Got a td Cortina and hotwires on it. uses the same thread as falcon but nuts centre the rims, going internal into the rim, not a bevel taper on the end of the nut like others

Thanks for that info guys. I thought that was the size but just wanted to make sure so I didn't stuff the wheel studs up with the wrong wheels nuts.

Hmmm if they are in fact same as Falcon the the Falcon thread for wheel nuts is 1/2-20 UNF not metric
