Default how-to install lugs on rotors?

i wanna buy some slotted rotors, but b4 that i just wanna make sure about re-installing the lugs onto them. my 280ZX had screw in types, like many domestics do. but my friend who put my springs on said that Hondas are pressed in, so that got me thinking. yes, that happens.

on US built Hondas, like my 2000 Accord, are the wheel lugs pressed on or screwed on? i need 2 know so i can ask around for a shop that can press 'em 4 me. or i'll ask @ the Austin Meet this Sunday.

I seem to remember you having a four banger, so it would be hub over. easy fix tho, get a slide hammer, and you can do all that **** yerself. Plus, slide hammers are cheap or you could just take it to Dave at NTB, he did mine when I got the AEM kit, as far as nuts, you have plain old lugnuts, open or closed, same diff except for clearance

you may want to look into the 98-99 CL rotor-over-hub conversion. shouldn't run you anymore than $225 - $250 to do. just use the 98-99 CL rotors (or upgrade to 11: ones and better calipers). it just makes life easier when you can just take the rotor off and have it turned, and not have to worry about having to have the hub pressed out....just a though.
