Wheel Studs
Anyone have some or where to get some? Also a place to get them installed. I broke two today while putting my wheels on 
. Please help out. I feel so sick right now. Plus, when it broke, my face slammed on my fender causing a mean gash on the inside of my mouth and a small ding. Ugh. Help me out. Thank you.

Front passenger studs. Idk how i broke 2. My friends who were helping me said the socket was crooked. How do you install the studs? I really dont feel like doing the install. Any shops to recommend? TIA.

Put new bolts in the freezer for a day or so
Remove wheel (obviously)
Remove caliper
Turn rotor/hub until the stud that needs to be removed is aligned with the opening in the shield behind the rotor
Hammer out the old stud
New stud should slide in easily if you've put it in the freezer

if you stop by my shop i could take out your old ones and put in your new ones. just get the studs, and i can do it on my break. i work at goodyear down in pearl city bro. barely get subarus stopping by, nonetheless ones i actually know. I changed a bunch before. btw next time, use a little anti-sieze when you thread your lugs on, keeps em from cross-threading.
