... on an impreza though.....

whip the disc off, get a big hammer and give the stud a sharp hefty thump. That should loosen it. You'll need to turn the hub to the small groove to get the stud out (not sure if thats the case with the car your using)

when all out, clean the holes, and then fit the studs, tightenting them up to pull them in - make sure they are all the way in!

No idea on normal size, presume its different for all/most cars

25-35mm perhaps, M12 x 1.25
