no, the stock lug nuts are 14x1.5 mm thread you'll need the 9/16-something thread custom lug nuts, which are what I bought.  here's a link to a set  http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Wheel-Lug-Nuts-9-16-Dual-Thread-Chevy-GMC-32-Pcs_W0QQitemZ270223658921QQcmdZViewItem  you need the dual thread nuts to attach the center caps with.
