I'm guessing it's caused by overtightening.
If you're breaking studs just putting a wheel on, I wouldn't suggest DIY stud replacement.
Take it to a pro for new stud(s). Then buy a torque wrench.

I had a person(dumbazz) use one 1.5 lug instead of a 1.25 and when I had it removed it broke the bolt because of cross threading.
