longer lug bolts

I need to run a spacer on my 85 300 sd to fit the later 8 hole wheels on the front without hitting the dust cap. I am looking for bolts that have the stock style ball base and 1 11/16" of bolt after that.

I used to know where to buy longer bolts cheaply but seem to have lost the source. Can anyone recommend?

Seems like it was lugnuts.com or such.

I have an entire bag of brand new longer lugs...Bought them and never ended up using them...

I think they are a 60mm shank, I'll have to check. Will that work for you? They are M12x1.5

I buy my lug bolts from my local wheel repair shop, he sells them to me for $.50 a bolt. He keeps 2 lengths in stock but can get a ton of other lengths as well. Worth finding a shop near you.
