Wheel studs and dealers?

Hi

Thinking of installing wheel studs and wondering if anyone has had any issues with an under warranty car at any dealerships? I'm Canada but curious about anywhere really if they have given you a hassle.

Thanks

James

I know some tire shops like my local Discount Tire will not service a vehicle with added studs due to liability so I doubt the dealership would be cool with it.

My dealer never had a problem with them being installed. I installed them specifically because a major tire shop damaged a wheel hub when installing an OEM lug bolt, which resulted in needing a new hub. Since then, another major tire shop I've been to never had a problem with them.
