Just got to working on these babies last night. Snapped them off with a 3/4" breaker bar, pounded them out with 2 lb sledge and sprayed the holes with wd-40. I then inserted the new lug studs by pushing through the hole in the back and then slid an oversized nut out over the threaded part of the lug stud. I then started a lug nut and tightened against the oversized nut to pull the lug stud through the hole.
They make it look easy on you-tube but I had to really crank hard with the 3/4" breaker bar to pull the lug stud through the hole. New lug nuts I used got hot and I think I stretched the threads on them. I was able to turn them off but plan to get new lug nuts. Didn't seem to hurt the threads on the studs as I was able to screw old nuts on with fingers. The new ones that got hot I could start but would get tight quickly. So I am getting there!
