Default broken wheel stud...need to replace!

I need to replace a stripped wheel stud, how do I go about doing this. It looks like I need a special tool, anyone who has done this any helpful hints, also do they make longer wheels studs for a 6gen civic? TIA

Try using the Skunk2 extended wheel studs.

you'll need an impact screwdriver to get the little screws that hold the rotor out. Use a size three head and a big fucken mallet.... You should be able to squeeze them out without taking anything else out.

You need to take of the brake rotor, then remove the wheel spindle. The studs are pressed into it.
http://www.nrg-racing.com had some Skunk2 extended studs last time I looked. I think they were $5/ea and they also had the aluminimum lugs too. Give them a shout Monday.

actually, you can just hammer them out of the spindle, them throw in the new ones and remember to tigten them down with the wheel....it's ghetto, but it works...
