the studs are so easy to replace my first time it took me about 1 - 2 hours. lol the hardest part is taking the rotor off cause of those damn screws and lack of a impact screwdriver. being as lavy as i am i found a way to knock those broken studs out with out taking out the rotor and replacing them heheheh. i have 2 more wheels to go lol

Honda studs and lugs suck. After replacing the 4th stud on my prelude and I went with Skunk2 lugs and studs and I haven't had a problem since.

Anyways, are you saying that you replaced your studs without removing the hub? If so I'm guessing that you probably grinded down the wheel stud so it would slide past the knuckle. Not a great idea...
I'm toying with the idea of notching the knuckle itself so that I can slide a stud past it but I'll hold off until I need to change out a wheel bearing. I feel that this option is a hell of a lot safer than grinding down the head of the stud.

I would replace your wheel bearings and go ahead and spend the extra money. Napa has some I think for around high $50 range. You can actually just get a mallet and tap in it. Or just take it all to a shop and do it right.
