You just need a lug stud. I snapped one of mine this past summer. All it takes is a press, and a fair amount of time.

buy a stud from honda, like $2, take it to a shop so they can install it. it's really hard to do on your own, but you can, you need a hub puller and a press.

I had a few broken studs (yes, a few) and we couldn't get the axel nut to come off. Good thing Freddy had old 4 lug parts laying around!

Just "pull" the new stud through by tightening a lug on it. That's how we did it in auto class, on my Accord and with my extended skunk2's.

I should say I that always used a impact which gave the stud a more sudden pull then doing it by hand would.
