Replacing OEM studs with extended studs?

Has anyone had experience installing extended studs on the FX50? I searched for a DIY and didn't turn up anything for an FX. Is it as simple as knocking out the old studs and pulling the new ones through, and if so, is it a headache to get the stock studs in position to knock each one out?
 
A search for "wheel studs" will turn up a thread with several viable options as well. I think though, that the thread pertains to 1st Gen FX studs, so you'll want to verify the specs before you buy anything.
 
Had them installed yesterday. The hubs had to be removed in the front in order to have enough space to install the extended lugs. In the rear there was enough space to knock out the stock studs and replace them with the extended studs (50mm) by just removing the calipers and the rotors.
