Default Down to 2 wheel choices - build locks in a couple of weeks

I keep going back and forth on wheels - it again comes down to the 5 lug vs center lock question. If I go 5 lug it will be the Turbo Exclusive Design Wheels and if CL, the Turbo S exclusive design wheels. For some reason I like the yellow calipers with the CLs but the black with the 5 lugs. I know color and options have a lot to do with things, so here’s what I’m going with for the rest of the car. I’m not changing the interior/exterior color or the body painted elements, I’m very happy with those.

It is all down to personal taste but personally I love the Porsche Exclusive Design Wheels (the 5 lug). I recently found out that there are some advantages to the 5 lug wheels.

I like both but like the yellow PCCBs either way. I love the Exclusive look and the CLs look fantastic but I wouldn't want to deal with CLs. Think about this, more often than not I see TTSs with the CLs and rarely do I see a TTS with the Exclusives, which would distinguish it a little more. Personally I don't think you can go wrong with either.

Turbo S = Centerlocks.

I prefer the top one in any event, but that's the one I went with, so I'm biased.

Why create this same thread here and the TT sub forum? Flip a coin… it’s the same as asking strangers on a Internet forum about subjective decisions

Point taken, but if you read my second post I apologized for posting in the wrong forum - I thought I was posting I the 992 Turbo forum when I wrote it.

Ah, gotcha. So what have you decided on?

I decided to go with the CL wheels. I’m hoping I don’t regret the decision from a practical standpoint as I’ve never had CLs before.
