Default Extra thin wall impact sockets

I have a set of Sunex Extra thin wall impact sockets that I use for taking lugs off my Volk TE37's. (it is very tight clearance between the socket and wheel, so standard thickness impact sockets will not work)

I just bought a set of extended lug nuts and the sockets are not deep enough now. Can anyone recommend a set of extra thin wall deep impact sockets?

Thank you.

Thanks for the reply. It's hard to tell from the photo and video that they show because they are using standard depth lug nuts.

I have a set of these:

They look like they would word but they do not because they are not deep enough for extended lugs...

I doubt you are going to find one deep enough with a plastic cover with a thin wall. Something has got to give.

This one is a 19mm, 25.4 wide, 50mm deep with a total length of 76mm

This one could be a winner! I don't care about the plastic sleeve...
