Thanks everyone for the comments! Lots of activity on the boards as a result of this mod which is always good for everyone...
Felix - not as bad as you'd think! Will send you PM
Slight if any.
ROTec Group Buy - my brother actually bought these, they weren't part of the original plan but hey...they worked out.
As for the recall:
Here's the inside scoop.
This affects cars from 2007-2008 with the older "500NM" label on the centerlock. From what I've been told, the concern lies around vehicles that have been driven over time (over a year) have been tracked in which the centerlocks might have been loosened as a result. Continual driving on the loose lock wears on the the hub and other pieces, which could eventually spin the wheel off. Porsche has decided that 600NM is the actual torque that should be on these cars, thus the recall and new centerlocks. The centerlock is the exact same, with a 600NM label instead.
Since the kit was just completed, there hasn't been any time to "wear" these parts in. We're getting a new set of centerlocks with the 600NM and will check everything when we hit BBI for alignment and the next project upgrades.
You guys have a great community here on TS. Thanks!
Sweeet A, PM me the price for the wheels? I'm afraid I will get a heartattack, no?
is there a weight savings over stock for the CL??
Are those OEM taillights ?
