V-Project Inc Wheel Stud Installer Kit Kia Borento 2003-2017 M12x1.5 Chrome

Kia Borento M12x1.5 Stud Installer Kit

This installer kit provides the tools required to press new M12x1.5 wheel studs into the hubs of Kia Borento models built between 2003 and 2017. The chrome-finished components resist corrosion during residential garage use. It targets owners and mechanics who need to replace damaged or stripped studs without removing the hub assembly.

Upgrade From Makeshift Press Methods

The kit replaces improvised approaches such as using a standard lug nut and washers to draw studs into place, which can damage threads or seat studs unevenly. The jump is worth it when multiple studs must be installed or when the hub remains on the vehicle, because the dedicated driver and spacer ensure straight, fully seated insertion every time.

Sustained Use Across Multiple Hubs

Under repeated installations the chrome coating maintains lubricity and resists galling, allowing consistent torque application across all four corners. The hardened driver and spacer dimensions of 20mm by 24.9mm by 43.15mm stay true, so the last stud seats as cleanly as the first without the tool deformation seen with improvised hardware.
