Hello Don, thanks for reaching out. The Americana Aluminum Trailer Wheel # AM43FV can use standard tapered-style or coned lug nut like part # 12CLN. For a 13" aluminum wheel with 1/2" studs, the torque spec would be 75-85 ft.-lbs. I have included our torque chart for your reference.
What kind of camper do you have these wheels on?

Thank you Jesse for all the great information. I put these on my Sea Doo Trailer. They look so much better than the what I call utility trailer wheels that came on the trailer.
