93 gs300 wheel stud issue
So I have a 1993 gs300 and i got 24mm spacers on the back im trying to remove for 10mm ones. Reason is because i got wider wheels so i can pull off the wheels but not the spacer. 2 studs are NOT stripped they seem like they are not seated. So when I go to loosen the lugnut on the spacer the stud spins freely with the lugnut. I have this problem on Rear Studs only. What im asking is how do i go about fixing this issue? By the way the studs were replaced before with 1998 toyota tacoma studs because they are a bit longer then oem gs300 ones. they were seated and welded on for security. i have a total of 3 studs i need to either replace with Tacoma ones or possibly just reweld? Buckys will not replace my studs for Tacoma studs only OEM ones. I cannot go back to oem ones because the hub was drilled to fit this Tacoma ones in the first place.. PLEASE any input advice anything will help.. BTW I was able to remove the lug nuts on the 2 of the 3 studs that are not seated properly I cannot get one out.
