dailydriver is infamous around these parts
My understanding was that the 5 lug wheel was a no money factory option offered on all of the Porsche cars that come with center locks. Someone who has taken the time to order one of these cars feel free to correct me, but this is what I have read in these forums.

Also I did read that Porsche issued a TSB with very specific instructions on tightening the centerlocks. There were instructions on torquing the center lock to a specified level, then backing the centerlock off slightly and re-torquing to the final level.

1. You stand corrected. Utter and total BS.
2. True fact.
