can the wheel studs be replaced easily during a rotor replacement?

i.e. does the hub or bearings need to be disassembled or simply removed?

and I know this next question generates lots of debate, but what would be a good substitute for Optimoly HT, and how is the torque force affected by this?

yes, they just push out. for fronts, remove hub, remove rotor, attach
new rotor, install hub and put everything back - regrease bearings and
don't over tighten.

wheel studs can be replaced easily, just press them out.

I use the anti-seize that is aluminum and grease based that comes in a
small tube. never had anything seize.
