Lug Thread Size

I was just wondering if anyone knew the lug size and thread type. I have two cross-threaded lugs on the driver side rear wheel that I was going to try to chase with a die before I go through the enormous ordeal of replacing the studs. I am going to borrow a thread gauge tomorrow and I just wanted something to compare to. Thanks in advance

21MM WAY OFF try 12mm dia 1.50 mm pitch you can pull the rear and remove the hub with out special tools in about 1 hr The tire store stripped one of garfinkles 2weeks ago he replaced the stud in about 1 hr he was mad that used an air tool on it

I thought he was referring to the lug nuts, give me a break, it's late and 6:30am is going to come way too soon.

duboisr - You were right on. Believe it or not, I got lucky for once and the tap and die worked. Ordered some lugs from Mazda just in case. Thanks for the help.
