I suggest Moser studs. I couldn't break them when I wanted to. Had to pull the axles and cut off the back side and hammer them out.

Wait until you see how expensive they are

Do not damage your ABS rings when you do the work.

I was pricing out aftermarket studs and they were $8 each. That adds up quick...

I did not realize the OEM ones were reasonably priced...
