I wonder, given my spacers are only 14mm, if it;s enough to have around 56-59mm thread bolt... it may help fit without removing the brake hardware
btw
in the meantime, as a test, I placed the 7mm (also H&R) on my rear wheels without changing the studs (I think the stock is 45mm and everything seemed ok. I haven't counted the number of turns (some ay 7 some say 9)

I took my front hubs off and did them on the bench. the 66 mm stud is perfect for the 21 mm spacers as I said....and doing a little math, my spacers are 7 mm thicker than yours and my bolts are also 7 mm longer, so a 56-69mm stud ought to be fine....ifi they come in that size of course?
My test would be whether I had full engagement of the nut plus a mm or so, easy to check with a steel nut if you have one lying around...and not that hard with a bit of measuring on the standard nuts. I never used the "turn" measurement on nuts but on bolts I use engagement to blind threads being at least 1 diameter engagement.
