Default Alloy Wheel Steel Inserts

Hi all,

2007 STi with standard 17" Enkei's
Just wondering, the wheel nut steel insert bushes on my alloys are getting pretty nasty.

Not sure you can even buy them online, I don't know if Subaru even sell them.
If I did get hold of some. would the old ones just tap out from the back? Or would the steel inserts be so corroded into the alloy and have virtually welded themselves on?

Some look like a spline arrangement, but I can't find what I'm looking for.

Get some Bit Hamber Does Gel, follow the instructions, and then paint the non-tapered section of them.
