Aftermarket tpms sensors

I have a set of aftermarket wheels which I went to install. Turns out the stock tpms sensors fit but the valve stem is bit too short. In essense they can install them but not put any air in the tire. Are there any sensors out there that will work with our cars, but extend just a bit more? Is there such thing as a valve stem extender?

You can purchase the valve stems if different lengths---

Here is a link to them on ebay - Belle Tire - standard length is 43mm

So 48mm should probably be enough?
