I dont think the need to be welded at all. As far as pressing them in you should be able to slide it through and the get an open ended lugnut and jsut tighten it down. It should suck the lug right through.

yea it mis true they are only 99 probably but when not just get better ones there stronger they were 16 dollars for 5 so its not to bad and there extended. the car is a 1993 turbo del sol sohc

Why spend the money when there's nothing wrong with the stock ones that not overtorquing/crossthreading won't take care of?

Extended studs annoy the piss out of me. Takes forever to tighten down the lugs, and now you need some gay-ass super deep socket to fit over the stud. What is the point of those anyway? Is it like windshield squirter lights and VTEC ie useless?

I have 3" ARPs on my car. If you got the right ones, don't have to weld them in. Easiest way to do it is too get a slide hammer and hub adaptor, pull your hub off, bang out the old studs, pull your new one through with an impact or wrench and a big arm, put the hub back on the car, and re-torque the axle nut.

Also, you have to be REAL lazy to complain about longer studs. It's a whole 2 sec more! I don't have them because I'm a ricer with LED Squirters, I needed to properly space out my slicks!
