Ya I just got a BFH and smaked it out and then depending on what lug nuts you have you can just put it on backwards and use it. But mine I had to get a couple washers on the new stud and pulled it in that way.

Big c-clamp with a socket on the receiving end. Then reverse to press the new one in.

I just used a bfh and broke the whole stud off. Had to replace the stud and repaint my wheel but it worked.
