I bought two nice tires already mounted on wheels for my new '89 245. I went down to the shop where i'm storing the wagon and took the new wheels w/ me. One of them went on o.k. but the other wheel i could barely get the lugs off...by the time i did the lugs and the studs were all really ate up. I could sort of get two on to hold the new wheel but the car is undrivable. I asked the guy at the shop to fix it up for me. What should I expect to pay to get 5 new studs pressed in?

I hope the rears are not the same way!

I'm just really worried that i'm going to spend so much on this car just to get it streetable. It was supposed to be a dirt cheap project....arrghh!
