Umm... how do you know there are no problem? Driving around with a missing stud is a problem in itself.
Cheap and easy to replace. As he said... do a search and you'll find what you need.
In the meantime, stop driving the car until you fix it. If one went, there was likely a reason for it and the others may not be far behind.
I think what happened is, when I was pulling the tires off, the tire iron pushed down on the lug and forced the stud to break (real smart, I know). I had no problems with any other stud, and I took all 4 tires off. I will get to fixing it this weekend. As for driving, yes Wild Weasel, it is a problem, but I have called mechanics, friends, neighbors ect and I have heard stories about driving on 2 studs and its OK, so I really don't think 1 week is going to hurt anything. Of course, I will inspect everything to make sure when I replace the stud.
Thanks for the advice, and the forum list (which I found and is amazing!)
