Lug nut question

I know this has been discussed before but I've searched and searched and still haven't found an answer. Here is my situation-

I bought a set of wheels from an 03' Heritage edition. They will be going on my 01' when I end up getting a new set of tires to put on them. The lug nuts on there now are the short ones with the washer on the end. The Heritage wheels do not have a cap that covers the nuts, they are exposed. So it would seem that they take the same nut that FX4's have.

I know this is a 14x2 nut but all of the ones I've seen for sale have the tapered end instead of a washer. Which style do I need? The guy I bought the wheels from said he had the nuts to go with them, but he won't return my calls or emails. Guess he got his money so screw me right? Anyways I don't want to waste my money on the wrong nuts or even worse, screw up the wheels.

IIRC the wheels are hub eccentric and require washer type lugs and not the tapered type. I would check with the Ford parts dept and then buy the proper lugs at the Auto Parts store. Also the torque rating for the 14mm studs must be followed. My 02 HD lug torque is 150#.

If anybody has an 03' Heritage Ed. please let me know what kind of lug nuts it has or just post a picture of one. If I called the dealership I would probably be on the phone for 20 minutes and still not end up with an answer.
