wheel studs??

how hard is it to replace the front wheel studs on the evo. Need to swap out mine for longer ones and dont really want to pay for someone else to do it.

I see you have an 03 which means that its likely rusted together pretty well. You can probably do it yourself, just make sure you dont snap a stud off.

Not hard, I've had to do two due to overtorqed lugnuts when I got the car. Set aside about 2 hrs. Just need some sockets, needlenose pliars, and a big hammer.

Take a BFH and smack the hell out of the studs and they should come right out. Take the new studs and a pull them tight with a lug nut.....take your brake rotors and stuff off first of course.
