Replacing a lug nut stud is a critical safety procedure that ensures the secure attachment of wheels to a vehicle. Lug nut studs are threaded bolts that extend from the wheel hub and provide the mounting points for lug nuts, which hold the wheel in place.
Damaged or worn lug nut studs can compromise the integrity of the wheel assembly, leading to potential safety hazards such as wheel detachment. Regular inspection and timely replacement of lug nut studs are essential to prevent such risks.
