Thought so... Have to say it...I hate center locks they are a royal pain requiring more tools and plain silly/expensive additional maintenance procedures, greasing your nuts etc etc. 5 lugs so much easier. Is what it is and I've got used to the CL routine over the years but still think its backwards.

^agree! if the car turns out to be a long-term track keeper, and a 19" wheel option becomes available, I will seriously look at the 5 lug conversion.

By the way I know a number of guys around my weight who claim you can use this as a break bar by removing the gauge handle and you dont need a piece of pipe to slip over it if you have reasonable strength. So effectively if you are even a little bit fit and around 200lb youll manage just fine with this alone. You dont need the special tool for removing the caps and setting the lock mechanism as it comes with the nut bit in the front of the 991 GT3.
