Default wheel studs

okay so Somehow the studs on my rear wheels 2 out of 5 snapped off? looks like they were overtightened and then snapped. well as I took off the wheel to take a look to see if I can just pound them out.. i guess we cant any ideas?

I just did this, to all my wheels and it is a bitch.

Get 5 new studs, high strenght if you can find them.
Get a wheel bearing ~$85.00

you need a press and a lot of tools

First you need to pull of the brake stuff, disconnect the ABS wire where it hooks up to the hub and place it someplace out of the way.

Then I pull the hub and press out the bearing, had to cut off part of the bearing. Then you can replace the studs. Now you need to press in the new bearing and put it all back together.

Simple text of what you have to do. I split it into 2 days and got quicker as I did them. Over all it took me about 9 hours. I think Honda charges about $125.00 in labor for each wheel.

But it is the only way to replace them, because of the bearing.

I also replaced the wheel nuts, with these

Now I only put my lug nuts on with anti-sieze and by hand and then I torque them down.
