Question:

The hardware that comes w/ this spare tire carrier, what kind of lug nut does it accept? Will an M12-1.50 work?

The Front Mounted Trailer Hitch Universal Spare Tire Carrier # 6715 you were looking at does not use standard lug nuts, and needs to use the included washers, and nuts.

The bolts included with the hitch are 7/16-14 grade 5 bolts, so your M12-1.5 lug nuts will not fit.

I included a video of the # 6715 for you to take a look at.
