Ok so I just got my Ichiba spacers. These will be used on my rear wheels. How do I install the new studs? I searched for DIY but couldnt find anything. Any tips, pointers, anything?

 

You will need to take off the brakes/calipers. You then take the rotors, remove oem studs, put new studs in.

 

there is a diy on how to change brake pads. Check that out and basically thats how you go about removing the brakes/calipers. From there all you have to do is take the rotors etc.

 

Thats exactly what I needed to know. Thanks alot!

 

Ok, seems easy enough. So after I remove the caliper, the rotor comes off by smacking it from behind with a rubber mallet? Do the studs come out the same way? Smacking them off and then smacking the new ones on? Just want to make sure. I'd hate to take everything apart and be stuck not knowig what to do. Thanks

 

Hammer the old studs out and get buy some 12mm washers , and one open ended lug. Put the new stud in from behind , then install the washers and the lug (flat side twords the washers) and tighten till the stub is drawn fully into place.

 

bump for any other install tips or pictures for the rear stud install.

 

There is a DIY for this, its just in the wrong DIY section...
