STuds are easy, just bang the **** out fo the old ones with a hammer then tap in the new ones. Your gonna be there a while and your arm will be sore but itll be worth it.

Studs: These are easy take the wheel off and the caliper. Pull the caliper out of your way or take it off the brake line too. Now towards the rear side in the back there is a little cut out opening, align a stud with this opening. Now beat the front of that stud with a sledgehammer it will pop out in 2 or 3 whacks. Reach finger in there and pull the stud out. Rotate rotor to next stud and repeat 4 more times. Do the same to the rear.
Putting them in. Stick new stud in reveres way take a punch and tap it in some. Take a old lug nut and with a air gun is easiest impacted it in some. Take the nut off and put like a large bolt over the stud and put the lug nut back on and finish impacting it all the way in. Repeat for the rest of the studs. I always replace my lug nuts.
The spacers I have no clue :-/ I have seen some on ebay that’s the best I can do.

DONT DO THAT!!!
You'll muck up your wheel bearings! :O
Just press them out, or only hit them from the side.
