Does anyone know the size of the locknut used on the rear wheel hub?
To clarify, I'm replacing my lug studs and after removing the brake rotor off. I find out that i'll need to remove the hub in order to gain enough room to knock out the old studs. Largest socket I have is a 30mm and this is even larger. ANYONE?

Are you sure??

There is usually a gap in the back plate that lets you knock the studs back out, one at a time......

The fronts are clear, but the rears have very little room behind them. Seems like this would be my only option. I searched some threads about it and it seems like everyone stated that it has to be removed. Just not sure what size the nut is.
