Question Nut size for bottom coil over bolt...

I received my KSport coil overs yesterday and plan on installing them this weekend. From what I understand, I will need to supply my own nuts to replace the ones that are part of the existing OEM bottom strut forks. I'm hoping one of you know what size those nuts need to be so I can get them beforehand. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

On the rear strut the oem nut is welded to the strut. When you go aftermarket you need to get separate nuts.
The nut takes a 19mm socket.
