I finally got the tires for my new 17in 350Z rims. I was anxious to get them on fast so I took a friends advice and went to Wal-Mart. I bought 235 45 17 Kumho ECSTA's. In the process of me taking off my old rims and putting on the new ones (because Wal-Mart didn't want liability trouble due to the 17's not being in their fitment book for a Maxima) I broke a wheel stud. Anyone know where I can get a stud replaced and about what I can expect to pay?
Thanks, MaxGig.

btw; I have some OEM 16's w 70% tread life off a 97 SE that I'll be posting in the FS section real soon if anyone's interested.

do it urself...take the brakes off pound old one off with hammer...put new one on using open ended lug nut and some washers to drives the splines in the hub

man that just sounds to easy, I'll pull the wheel and see if I can manage it. I called around and Sears was the cheapest saying they would charge $40 bucks for it. thanks

$40 to replace a wheel stud is like paying $40 for a double cheeseburger at mcdonalds.......you can get the stud at autozone for 2 bucks and just do it yourself its not that hard at all

here's how u disassemble ur brakes...

If you have a Brakemasters around, go there and buy the stud and lugnut from Autozone and have Brakemaster install it. Autozone sells the stud and lugnut for $4 and Brakemasters charges you $8 for them. So it's like $25 for labor plus your provide parts, about $29 total.

Likethey have told you, go to Autozone and do it your self in about a 1/2 hour. It is really easy, pound the old one out. Then put the new one in from the back and pull it into place with the lug nut.

IF u have access to air tools its like a 20 min job total...i ahd to do all 5 on a one wheels this summer and it took no more than 45 min u know beer break and shooting the ****

Cool, I'm always looking for a good opportunity to drink a cold one. thanks everyone
