Main issue with CL, in my opinion as someone who changes wheels/tyres at home, is not the torque (need a torque multiplier, but doable), not the slightly more arduous procedure, but the need to have someone (not you therefore) press the brake pedal while the wheel is off the ground to allow you to tighten the CL nut to 600Nm. You must not, according to Porsche, nip it up, lower, and then tighten up.

With 5-lug just tighten as best you can, lower, and then torque up.

So, with CL, it's a two person job.
