Need help with tap size for tire hub

I was reinstalling the calipers/rotors tonight on the 996TT. I am converting the car over to studs & I cross threaded one of the rear hubs ever so slightly. I want to clean up the inner threads. I only hand tightened the stud a half turn or so but it must have gone in at an angle.
I have a tap set but the size isn't in my set. Does anyone know what the size is.
Thanks

Sent the wife over to local tool & supply shop yesterday. Got it. Wasn't excited about $27 for a tap, but what's a guy to do in a pinch. Lol
