Looking for longer than stock wheel studs. Any after market you found? I can't find anything.

Looking to upgrade to 1/2-20 studs. The 7/16 simply necks down. Is there a direct replacement with out drilling or being 3" long.

Nope. The knurl/shoulder diameter/length is the main issue coming up with proper replacements because they pass through the hub and the knurling bites into the rotor on the other side. Most are knurled at the head end, not partway up.

Even the 1/2" that do work are short enough that they do not protrude through the lug nut. Technically and in my experience thus far not an issue (threads engage more nut threads than their diameter) but it looks weird.
