Hello,

Trying to find lug nut size of the OEM "flange style Lug nuts. I
know their 7/8th x (???). looking for the thread count. Looking to find
some fancier long shank lugs like 3" or greater like you would find on bug
rigs.

Thanks!!

Where are you located, and what year/model coach? (Doesn't affect the nuts, but lets the rest of us know where you are and what you're driving). Call Summit Racing and see if they have what you're looking for.

I'm also trying to find out what the common use "application" of these OEM lug nuts would be. For example if I walked into my local AutoZone and said I need lug nuts for a 1977 Palm Beach the young gentleman behind the counter has no idea neither does his computer. But, if I refer to say a 19 82 GMC or Chevrolet p30 chassis are these the proper lug nuts which coincide with our motorhomes. To take it one step further with a better application be say in 1984 GMC or Chevrolet CK series 3500 dually?

All the gmc’s used a 9/16 X 18 stud and therefore you need a 9/16 X 18 lug nut. Dorman used to sell them as part# 611-054 and that was a quantity of ten.
More difficult to find them and you would be best to de-rust yours, wire brush them and put a coat of WD-40 to protect them or other lube of your choice.

They are available on Amazon:

For some reason, these lug nut thread s are not popular anymore.
You can go to 1972-76 chevy classic parts and possibly find some fancy
nuts.
