If you're short on just 2-3 full rotations why not just get some ET lugs so you don't have to change your studs? I had to get some too as I had gotten some after market wheels and they were rubbing on my calipers! I ended up using a 1/4 inch wheel spacer for clearance and bought the ET lugs to compensate for the 2-3 extra turns I had lost. Found these through video on YT of another S550 owner using them for the same reason.

I considered it, I plan to dabble in autocross and the occasional track event just as I did with my S197 car. So the ARP studs would be needed anyways to run the 19x11 squared setup and 25mm spacer. These are definitely a great budget option though for the right applications.

I didn't really check but I was also only able to get about 2-2.5 turns with this setup and the 8mm spacer.

Thanks for the info. I did not know these existed. Just wondering if there are any drawbacks to these, like maybe it snaps off at the shoulder? My latest pic. This "clean" moment didn't last long.
