After going through hell with trying to get installed my spacers with longer studs - I gave up.
For your information - to change studs in ST205 one has to disassemble hubs which is likely to result with damaged bearings. This would add ~500$ to the expenses related with installing Volks (42 offset) on my GT4. Therefore, I am selling my Volks - tomorrow morning OZ Racing Ultraleggeras in graphite will be installed. 
-------------------- '94 ST202 - tuned, highly apprieciated, but sold.
'99 ST205 - imported, legalized, Stage 1 completed. For slow driving: Yamaha XVS650 Drag Star. The most recent addition to the family and for the family: Toyota RAV4 2.0 VVTi Celica-Club Poland - Everything you want to know about your favourite car ... in Polish |

WOW $500 for bearings?
I get them for $20 or so here I thought you could hammer out the studs? |

Are studs the threaded things that you screw the lugnuts to, right?
If so, one of my front right ones is stripped, and another one broke. How can I fix that?

Remove wheel/caliper/rotor
Then use a hammer to punch the studs out. Get new studs from your dealer. Use a reversed socket (20mm or so) and a breaker bar to 'pull' the stud into the hub. Use a bit of WD-40 or Silicon spray on the teethed edge of the stud to make to pull easier. Use the breaker bar so you can apply force without moving the entire hub. Just like in the next picture.  -------------------- JDM Powerplant installed, BPU coming very soon!
