I have the after market wheels, going on a bug. I have wasted money trying to find the correct lug bolts. Either the lug bolt is too short or it the correct size but because of the conical head it installs and the threaded part sticks into the drum about 1/2' scared that is will damage brake components. Or I the aftermarket lug bolts loosen up and cause me to lose a wheel and I have to carry a wrench and socket to tighten them up. Please help, I want to keep the wheels but can afford an accident.

Do the long lug bolts hit anything inside the drum when you spin the wheel off the ground?

no, but they tend to loosen up and I had to use washers in the back because they rubbed on the brake springs

You could cut the excess off and run them through a die.
