Lug Size?

My last 5er I had to buy 8 open ended lug nuts to use with the spare, fortunately when I found this out it wasn't along the highway with a flat, I was doing maintenance & needed the spare on the ground for bit.
Well this post couldn't have come at a better time, but I need help in how to determine lug nut size for my Dexter Axles. I had forgotten all about the steel spare lugs needing to be open ended. Any direction would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You
