HELP: Need to replace 3 wheel studs

Today when i was taking off my tire because somehow my lug nuts always seem to come loose, only one of the nuts came off fine and the others just chewed through the other 3 wheel studs before they came off so now im left with 3 completely stripped wheel studs....

Does anyone know how to replace the wheel studs without having to take my car in? (Bad problems with local Honda dealers around here) Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Apparently this is an easy fix, from what others on this board have experienced.

Here, check out these threads (I just did a seach for "wheel studs"):

Thanks, i completely forgot about searching. Im sort of glad i did it though, now i have an excuse to finally go out and fix my car. Abour a year ago i curbed it (5 mph max, but right into a curb) and bent my rim and whatnot. When i took it to Honda they said i had a bent hub and some bearings and a bent Sub Frame and wanted $1800 to fix it all. Personally i think the dealership is trying to rape me because i know there isnt that much damage
