The only time I seen people have problems with wheel studs is:

not taking care of hand threading the lug on before use an impact or other
power driver
or
not using anti-seize on the stud causing increased friction/load on the
stud then causing the stud the stripe/break.

If you are having other problems, I'm out of ideas.  But I have done
hundreds of tire changes on mine and other cars with no problems if the
above was followed.


>>>Anyone know where I can get ahold of some stronger wheel studs?

Seems as though the constant changes of tires for the autocross days are
causing me fits in changing out studs that are stripped and what not.<<<
