Default Does anyone make extra deep closed lug nuts?

I have extended studs on the front hubs of my car. I've been looking for a closed end lug nut that's long enough (1 9/16", 1.6", 40mm) to cover the whole stud. I checked the Gorilla catalog but they only have 1.4" overall length in 12mmx1.5 thread. Does anybody know of another lug nut mfg that might have something?

Thanks in advance.

Go see the 4X4 guys. Some of their studs are long enough to hang laundry on 'em.

Try www.mcgard.com.

Several applications here that I'm sure you will find something.

Let us know how you make out.

I tried Gorilla and McGuard. Neither has anything long enough so I ordered these. They should be here early next week so we'll see how they look/work.
