i guess im buying new hubs. fuck me

i just did mine one on each hub all the way around, i didnt even have to heat it or anything i just sprayed a little rust penetrator on there and maybe like 2 or 3 hits from a small sledge hammer and it was out..i could meet you and bring the sledge hammer but i wouldnt be too comfortable banging your m5 =D so you can do it on your own

i have a sledge hammer. BMW studs are different from nissans so its not that simple.

^exactly, they dont use hammer out studs and lug nuts. the hubs are threaded and you use lug studs (theyre like bolts) and they thread directly into the hub.

I'd replace the hub. If it snapped it's cause it was cross threaded anyway. You'd have to drill out the old one and tap the hub for a replacement. Safer to buy a hub.

were they chrome ones? the chroming process weakens the lug studs. its a no no.

ok now is this on the front or rear?

and next time use a air gun and its a least greater risk of snaping them
