Default Wheel rim repair or not

Hey all

One of the wheel rims from my Otter project has had all the 7/8 BSF studs replaced at some point. They have all been, what I believe, brazed in. The nuts were just plain nuts. On the outside of the rim it looks like a torch had been used to cut the originals off.

My question, is it worth it to replace all of the studs with proper ones? The same for fixing the torch damage?
