well i just got back from big o tires and they stripped 2 of the studs on the front left wheel. i am trying to get them to pay for it but it looks unlikely so can someone point me in the direction on where i can get some more studs and directions on how to replace them they are not in my hayens manual

It's easy...just drive them straight through,after you remove the caliper,bracket,and rotor.These strip quite easily so have a few spares around.PS:they remove the same front and back...

Discount Tire just did this to one stud on my car. I was sent to a shop down the street they had an account with to have it fixed. After a few more issues concerning the tires, I get the car home today & find the wheel moved to back passenger & one lug sticking out about half of an inch farther than the rest. I can't budge it & don't have much along the lines of tools anymore, the question is whether or not this is safe. I don't see anything resembling a spacer behind it & really just want the thing fixed properly. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
