Default Rotors question

Does anyone know what size the lug nuts is that holds the front rotors? Just want to make sure I have the size before I start swapping out my old ones.

I've seen varying metric pitch sizes mentioned for the rotor screw at 8x1.25 and 10x1.25. As for the wheel lugs those are 12x1.5.

You don't need the rotors screw. I have learned from some of the technicians is that they put it on there during the assembly process to keep the rotors in place as the car is moving along the line before the wheel gets put on.

It's one less thing to worry about when you are doing your brake service. Last thing you want to deal with is stripping that screw and having to drill it out.
