I am in the drive to change some lug stud on a 93 prelude over the
weekend and need some insights.....

The prelude is a 4 disc setup.

Tips from anyone who has done this or have seen some do it before are
welcome

knock em out with a hammer and pull the new ones up tight with an impact.
you might need to space out the lug nut from the hub with some washers. on
my 92 civic i had hell squeezing the stud in. i ground one side of the head
of the stud and it slipped right in. some say it might weaken the stud but i
got the idea from stock hub bolts on a jeep dana 30. if studs can hold up to
the torture of offroading they can handle it on a honda!

I thought hammers were a no-no because the impact goes through the
bearing ? ? www.slhondaparts.com has your exploded views and part
numbers.

absolutely.  should remove the hub, or drive the stud out with a press -
hammers are verboten.
