Default Slashed tire :|

Well someone decided to slash my front passenger tire. As I was chaining out my tire to my spare one of my wheel bolts broke. Has anyone changed one out how... and if so would you mind telling me the steps to change it out. I would greatly appreciate it!!!

They are press to fit studs. If you have enough thread left of the old one you can put a lug nut on it and hammer it out then you just put the new one in from behind and use a lug nut and some spacers to tighten it to press it in.

This. Take wheel off, pull off caliper and rotor, smack the remaining nub with a steel hammer, slip new stud in from the rear, seat with lug nut and some washers, replace rotor and caliper, throw wheel back on, torque lug nuts to proper torque, and go get coffee.

Not a bad idea.

Best of luck!
