Rear are easy, just have to unbolt the hub and knock the old studs out and
put the new ones in. Front is a bit harder and requires the hub to be pressed out
and back in.

One word of warning, myself and many others have had problems with the
skunk2 wheel studs. they seem to gall quite easily even with antiseize.

I've put front wheel studs in without removing the hub but it took a lot of creative work with a dremmel grinder.

Really? What problems have you had with the S2 units? Are they stretching the threads?
