Default Valve stems?

Anyone have issues with the valve stems not being long enough to securely go thru the wheels? I have a BDR with 15" wheels...the tire shop guys pulled out the original stems to replace them with new ones when I had new tires installed. The wheel was approximately 9/16th inch thick where the valve stem went thru which was too deep for any of the shops stems. We couldn't find any stems that had more threads or a deeper rubber valve that would securely seat in the wheel. They pulled a standard rubber stem thru without lubricant and said it'll work...any ideas on this?
