I located stud and cut out a section of the sheetrock/drywall with a saw. Then using the Indoor Hanging Kit, predrill and lag bolt into the center of the stud, the drywall section previously cut-out and installed the anchor.
A coat of drywall mud over the cut out section with one of those mesh patches gets things looking pretty good.
I've had some of the eye bolts bend a bit, plus 250lb rated hardware is usually 3/8" going into a 2x4 which is really 1.5". I like to cut away the drywall and make sure I'm squared up and drilled in properly.
tl;dr cut away a section of drywall and save it, drill directly into joist or stud to install your anchor. Patch up with mud and the save section of the wall.
