I had to order them. Actually they should be in by now, I'm gonna stop over there today and pick them up. Still havent bought the tires or lugs yet... waiting to see if I can find a set of 15x10's used first. If not then I'll order the lugs, tires and rear wheels all at once. How hard was it to change the front studs? The rears should be pretty easy sice I have spare axles here. I'll just swap the axles when the wheels are here, but the fronts, I havent even looked at how those are changed.

Changing the front studs is pretty easy, took one good blow with a sledge to knock them out, and there is enough room behind the hub to remove them without any disassembly. Then, use your stock lug nut to pull the new ones back in (a shot of WD40 helps it)
