Default Can I use these Center Lock nuts

First off: I ask for forgiveness from the Forum Gods and Trolls for asking the question. With the amount of knowledge and expertise here we should be allowed to ask questions and get educated answers. I know a few of the GTS guys said they have done this I really like the red look with the calipers also thinking about changing either the GTS to full red or just GTS. I read there were some cracking issues.with the 997's these are 997 parts. if I order from Suncoast Porsche. It is all the small details in life that makes us happy.

Can't figure out how to link to another post but do a search for red center locks, based on that thread the answer is yes!
I'm considering doing the same, as the finish on my CL's has been damaged from what I assume was too aggressive wheel cleaning products.

Thanks just saw that, I am with you on the wheel cleaner. I use Sonax but keep it off the center locking nuts, then using Dr. Beasley's Matte Wheel Seal on the matte finished wheels. Been working great. Nice car white was my choice of colors. I have a white Audi SQ5 looked at Macan.

I recently bought this coming off a lease so I don't think it got the best of cosmetic care.
My car has red calipers, and red seat belts so I'm seriously considering the red centerlock nuts.

As for color, my C2S was white so I was open to another color and only ruled out black and silver.
This car came up at the right price, was near by and with almost all the options I wanted plus some that I didn't consider but glad they were on it.
Right now it's in the shop getting lighted CF sills, rennline front grills and a aerocup rear wing.
Your dark blue is beautiful.

Nice I just ordered Zunsport grill inserts. I thought about the wing don’t trust any body shops in Jacksonville to match blue of car.
