Spyder center locking rims and future rim choices

Will getting the center locking wheel option narrow down my choices for aftermarket rims if I choose that route in the future? Will I not be able to attach regular five bolt wheels to my car in the future?

i was thinking the same thing. how many wheels come with the center locking option? probably not too many. although i love the spyder wheels, i am not sure i would opt for those from the factory.

Forza forged has a nice one coming out, HRE is working on one, BBS, you'll have a few good choices inmo. I say go for it!

Only problem with Center Locks is on and off. Monster breaker bar required to get off and monster torque wrench required to get on. Any update on the Torque Multiplier from Porsche Yet?
