Wheel stud installer kit for Kia Sportage 1995-2017

This chrome kit supplies the tools needed to press M12x1.5 pin studs into the hub of a Kia Sportage built between 1995 and 2017. It is intended for DIY mechanics and independent garages that replace broken or stripped wheel studs without removing the hub assembly. The 20 mm stud length matches the factory specification for the listed application.

Simple press-in design reduces installation errors

The kit uses a nut-and-washer arrangement that draws the new stud into the hub as the nut is tightened, so no hydraulic press or special fixture is required. A common mistake is tightening the nut before the stud splines align with the hub slots, which can shear the splines or damage the tool threads. Cleaning the hub bore and verifying spline engagement before applying full torque prevents this issue.

Limited to M12x1.5 pin-type studs on listed vehicles

The thread pitch of 1.5 mm and the pin-stud profile restrict use to hubs that accept this exact combination; vehicles with larger or finer threads, or with serrated rather than pin studs, cannot use the kit. The supplied dimensions of 24.9 mm and 43.15 mm overall length suit the Sportage hub depth but may be too short or too long for other models sharing the same thread size.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the M12x1.5 studs are seated correctly after using the installer?

The tool presses each pin stud until its flange sits flush against the hub face; a visual check that no threads show past the rotor surface confirms the 20 mm length is fully engaged.

What comes in the box and do I need to buy the actual wheel studs separately?

The kit contains only the installation tool sized for M12x1.5 threads; the replacement pin studs themselves are not included and must be purchased separately.

The listing mentions several lengths — which one matches the 20 mm spec for my 1995-2017 Sportage?

The 20 mm dimension (0.787 inch) is the installed stud length specified for the Kia Sportage 1995-2017 application; the other figures (24.9 mm and 43.15 mm) refer to the tool body, not the stud.
