Thankfully the ground temperatures permit me from enjoying the car, so I am not in a rush to get everything together that's needed

You're only going to have a few turns of engagement. You'll want longer studs to be safe if running 5mm + spacers.

^ this here.

The stoptech rotor hat effectively adds about 2mm of spacer versus the OEM rotors, coupled with the 3mm spacer is the limit for stock stud length. If you run more spacer than that, get extended studs.
