In the 2016 Hyundai Accent, each wheel is secured with four lug nuts that have a thread measuring M12 X1.5. This remains consistent regardless of whether the parts are original or aftermarket. However, the size of the hex heads and the overall length of the lug nuts may vary, especially if they have been replaced at any point. In this model, you may come across lug nuts with hex heads that are 19mm, 13/16 inch, or 3/4 inch, and their total length can differ from 1.25 inches to 1.75 inches. It is crucial to pay attention to the lug nut torque when replacing them in the '16 Accent. Make sure to tighten each lug nut according to the manufacturer's recommendation, which falls in the range of 88 to 107 Nm, roughly equivalent to 65 to 79 lb-ft. Failing to tighten them enough could result in losing a wheel, while overtightening could cause damage to your brakes and bearings.
