I'll post some other pics later, but the rolled edge of the tire does hang out past the fender lip, but mine is a 2003, it looked like the newer G550's had the wider fenders like on the AMG's. At least the ones I've see at my local dealer.
The lug bolts looked like the same size as the stock lug bolts, but I didn't hold them up to compare. I got the wheels from a fello MBWorld member that is from the Dallas area, and I went to a tire shop and had them put them on.

Schweeeet! Glad you like the new rims, they do fill out the wheel wells nicely. 
As for the lug bolts, I do believe they are the same as stock, at least I didn't see any difference to the naked eye...
The only tricky part to having these is to make sure your G still fits in the garage...
They lift her up a couple of inches.

- Any rubbing?

The ride is great, I like it better than especially turning. I rode in a new G with24” and that was bad, 22” seems to be in the sweet spot. No rubbing or esp issues. I did get the dealer switch the computer to the biggest tire setting so the speedo isn’t too far off (still a tad off). The only worry is getting a flat tire and using the smaller spare...
