Reply to "Wheel Stud ... stripped what to do"

Assume they are thread in studs and not pressed in? Are threads in rotor still intact and not stripped?  If so use Loctite red threadlock on all the screw in studs.  Let it sit for 24 hours and you'll have to heat them to remove them in the future.   If threads are gone - Probably too big a hole to go to pressed in studs so only safe choice is remove rotor and have holes partially welded up and retapped for a new stud.  You mihgt find oversided base studs - I've seen them for VW stud sizes. I wouldn't try to use any of the thread inserts like helicoil for a wheel stud.
