>Center lock

Are you building a race only track car where you need quick pit stop?

No?

Then you're cancerous rice.

Building a track car actually.

Also so you're saying the 911 GT3 RS wheels are rice then?
>>
>>14122118
the torque required might make changing a flat tire needlessly difficult lest you have a bar extension or multiplier

Is it an actual hub or is it an adapter that bolts into the 5 lugs? If it's the former it's probably shit, if it's the latter it's for sure shit.

Even if you do get a proper setup they aren't good for the street and long term use, Porsche had to recall theirs due to them becoming loose over time and a few cars losing wheels. Plus you need special tools to get them on and off, at my shop we have a 700 psi nitrogen tank connected to a 3/4" drive impact to get them off and a 600 ft/lb split beam torque wrench to torque them down, you can't do it with normal 1/2" drive stuff.

The gt3 rs is meant to be a track car.

It's like you're a mongoloid.

A the 911 GT3 RS is a track oriented car that happens to be street legal.

B the 911 GT3 RS is designed with a center lock hub and upright from the get go. OP is referring to a conversion that uses the standard hub and upright with an adapter to run centerlock. It's heavier than either setup, it's no longer a hardcore racing part but a mostly looks deal so it's rice.

If you're building a track car then go with a billet wide 5 hub or something similar. Lighter than any center lock setup you'll be able to get your hands on and you can run lighter wheels too. A track car isn't a race car it doesn't need a fast pit stop. I know you're not actually building a car serious enough to even warrant a center lock anyway because you're posting on /o/. And you're certainly not building a race car but maybe at best a cobbled together occasional track day car that wouldn't be competitive in any class and even if it was you probably suck at driving. Most like you're just underage dreaming.

Here's what Hard Motorsport offers. The adapter comes with some low quality $300 wheel that weighs 20+ lbs. The Porsche center lock setup that utilizes a proper center locking hub costs over $2k just for the center lock hub.

Right? It looks like a flimsy wheel spacer with a threaded stub cast into it that is supposed to bolt to your hub and handle the force of a centerlock wheel. I wouldn't go 55 mph on smooth concrete in a straight line with that.

ITT: op does/says some stupid shit and /o/ calls him out on it. OP then makes some stupid shit up to rationalise his intent and gets called out on it being stupid shit.

i.e. 90% of all /o/ threads

Bro when pay $100 to drive my non-M BMW with M badges 25 mph around some cones at a local parking lot and stand around for 8 hours chasing cones I need to be able to turn just 4 nuts instead of 20 so I can swap my Korean Sumitomo tires for Hoosiers on my CAI only car.
