Extended length or extended thread? Extended thread lug nuts extend the thread through the wheel to add about .3 inch extra thread engagement.

I have wheels with a very deep recess, so when the lugs are in you can't see them.
I'd like to have it where the ends of the lugs are flush with the hub.
Looks a little off seeing 4 open holes..
