I would rather covert to studs than buying more lugs.
What are my options?
I see <a href="http://www.ecstuning.com/HR/appguides/app_search.cgi?make=&qt=studbolt&model=&thread=14x 1.5&submit=Search!">these at ECS</a>.
I assume I need 60mm ball seat for my OEM 17" RS4 Type wheels & B5 S4 Avus wheels both running 8mm spacers.

Craftsman air-gun grade bolt-out snapped in half:

drilled out and used a screw-type bolt-out to no avail and a tap isn't strong enough to get through what's left (top left one):
