Long lug bolts

Darned if I can find the source to buy some long lug nuts.

I am looking for some that are about 2" from the beginning of the ball seat to the end of the lug bolt. Not anything that came standard. For using about 3/8" spacers....can someone direct me please?

Fastlane has lug bolts. Can't really tell if they're long or not but I looked for an 84SD and I know the lugs on my 84SD are longer than the ones on my 123. They ain't cheap.

my 124 has non standard wheels on the back. It has 65mm long lug bolts. it was 1 short when I got it.
I found a company on your side of the pond on ebay that sells lug bolts for all sorts of cars. They had them. I cant remember who they were. Just look on ebay.

Here is a crazy idea. Have you tried Tire Rack? They seem to have lug bolts and lug nuts, etc, etc and might just be able to help you better.
