Broken Wheel Studs...

[Ares]

Factory studs suck bigtime. I have stripped 4 studs so far just by changing the wheels. I know when I put new ones in, I just pop them thr hole as far as they will go then spin the nut on backwards(cone seat facing out) and tighten nut untill stud pulled in tight. Depending on how much of a shoulder is on the stud sticks past wheel flange you may need a washer. I havnet had to fix any front ones only back, and the backones on my car can suck putting new ones in. The ABS ring makes it tight to get into hole.

As for wheel studs I would use ARP or Moroso.
