On the plus side, the dealership will rotate my tires for free going forward. They didn't admit it outright but did mention I wasn't the only one having issues with studs and lugnuts on the FRS.

@lynnmichelle oof, dealerships charge way too much for wheel stud replacement! I found out too when I snapped 3 wheel studs on a brake job.

Just get ARP wheel studs as soon as you start having trouble with snapping wheel studs. I haven't had trouble with any of them since installing years ago.

the dealership is highly likely to mess up more studs moving forward. I wouldn't take it back to them and just do the rotation yourself if at all possible using the processes that some of us went over in the thread.

Lol did they mention having issues with every other model Subaru makes?
There is nothing special or different with the FRS studs.
The whole Subaru line up use the same part. If they are strong enough for an Ascent or Wilderness Outback they are strong enough for a FRS or BRZ.

In all probably they are probability identical to all Toyota models as well.
