At 0:06 it looks like those rims were repainted because the cone in the rim should be silver or aluminum coloured. They look black as if someone painted the rim. Also at 1:30, there is more to it than just coating the cone on the Centerlock nut. The procedure is listed in the Porsche service manual. In time, the Castrol lube dries up and all parts under the cone should be cleaned thoroughly and re-lubed.
Multiple wrong pieces of information in this video: you do NOT bring the car down on the wheel before torquing the CL. Your use of Liqui-Moly paste is not recommended by Porsche. The CL tightening torque is 600 Nm or 444 ft-lbs. You first torque to 600 Nm, then you back the CL nut off 90 DEGREES, not what you said. There is NO mark on the wheel or nut for this. The third step is to torque to 600 Nm again or 444 ft-lbs. Please stop spreading misinformation about CL, there is enough wrong information out there already.
In fact, if you look at the 997 series of Centerlock instructions, it states 600 Nm ± 30 Nm and 60°. On my 991.1 GTS, it simply states 600 Nm and 90°. Of course for the locking mechanism to fully engage, a bit more torque not worth taking about, might be required.
I recently purchased the spare CL wheel kit. The spare wheel (Part # 991-362-021-02) is a standard 5 lug wheel with an adapter (Part # 991-362-191-00) bolted to the wheel with 5 bolts (991-361-209-00). It has its own CL bolt (Part # 991-361-181-50). The kit also contains two compact spacers one for the front and a bigger one for the rear. Note: The rear spacer is also called the shim. The part # for the front spacer is 9P1-601-271 (old part # is 991-362-193-00) and the part # for the rear spacer (shim) is 9P1-601-271-A (old part # is 991-362-195-00). Now the real question. If I get a flat in the front, I think it's fairly clear about putting the spare with front spacer and using the front spacer. The problem is with the rear. I have heard two different opinions here (1) Remove the good front wheel and install in the rear along with the rear spacer (shim) and instal the spare in the front with the front spacer. (2) Install the spare with the rear spacer (shim) in the rear and don't do anything to the good front. Does anyone here know which one of these are accurate? Any help with this will be greatly appreciated.
