Just thread the nut(flat side facing out) onto the stud as far as you can without exposing the threads. Then hit the nut with a hammer while supporting the "ear" of the hub on a block of wood with a hole large enough for the head of the stud to pass through. They should pop out with a few good hits. A vise will also work to support the hub.

like he said above, but if you have a lead sledge hammer use that. that way if you decide not to use the spaces you can go back to stock, the lead wount damage the wheel studs.

how do they ruin the hubs????^^^

when you tap the studs out and put new bolts on i wil lossen all the time so every ten minutes you have to stop to tighten them and every time you tighten them it streches the holes and ruins them
