Rally Wheel Lug Nuts - What size / style?

I happened to purchase some Rally style wheels for my 1986 C10 today. My current wheels (slots) are the washer style, and are rusty. I want to get some new lug nuts for the rallys, but I'm unsure what size and style are correct.

I BELIEVE that the size is 1/2 x 20, but as far as style, I'm not sure if I should be going with acorn (aka cone) style, acorn bulge, or something with an open end.

I was looking at McGard, just want to make sure I'm buying the style that looks good for the rallys.

Anyone have suggestions... bonus points for pictures of a style on your truck?

1/2-20 is correct for a C10.

The original lug nut was a steel nut with a stainless acorn decorative cap.

Any nut that emulates that style seems like it would be fine, as long as they fit the chamfer in the wheel.

Perfect. McGard has a lug that matches that style. Thanks my man, a picture of the lug nut and a picture of what it looks like installed, you're the champ!
