Default busted wheel bolts

The "highly trained professionals" that put my snow tires on last year broke a couple of wheel studs. I am installing new rotors this weekend, and I figured that it would be a good time to replace the bolts.

Questions:

1. I assume I can buy these things at an auto parts store, correct?
2. How do I get the old ones out of the wheel hub?

Thanks

usually they are pressed in/out. some parts stores may have them. they might have to order. either way, they shouldn't be hard to find.


good luck

parts store should have them. and use a hammer to get the old ones out and when u go to put them in. put them back thru the hole then put ur rotor on then tighten a lug nut on the rotor to pull the stud thru the hole. they have grooves that keep them from turning.
