Wheel studs I assume?....
Jack the car up, remove wheel, remove brake caliper and support assembly (don't let caliper dangle by the hose and don't disconnect it). Then remove the brake disc, then press out the wheel stud through the cut out area of your dust shield (if your car is equipped with them). When you install the new studs, make sure they are fully seated. Oh yeah, if you have ABS, I think you have to disassemble the front hubs.

when you are actually putting the new studs on, pull the stud through the hole by hand as much as possible. then put a few washers(i think) on the stud, and then put the lug nut on. then zip the nut down either with a wrench or impact. make sure the lug nut doesnt go down past the threads on the stud, so it doesnt strip anything, thats what the washers will help prevent. thats how you seat the stud in the hub
