8th Gen Civic Rear Wheel Stud Replacement 

8th Gen Civic Rear Wheel Stud Replacement: Dadmobile gets new wheels!
By Aaron Gaghagen
Having basic things go wrong on Project Dadmobile is kind of a thing for me lately. You know, the kind of annoying little things that turn into big headaches. Like taking off a wheel and tire. I've done it tons of times with no drama. But, when I went to install my brand new set of Konig Hypergrams wrapped in Falken Tire goodness, triumph turned to despair doing the most basic, routine action of taking off a lug nut.
Luckily, fixing a snapped rear wheel stud in an 8th gen is something that can be done without any specialized tools. Now Dadmobile is riding on sticky Falken rubber and lightweight Flow Formed Konig wheels that save 4 pounds on each corner even though they are wider than the OEM wheels they replaced.
