In the fast-paced world of motorsport, where every second is crucial, there’s a groundbreaking technology that transforms the ordinary task of changing wheels into an electrifying display of speed and precision. This is where the center lock wheel comes into play – an essential player in swift pit stops. And now, you have the option to equip your BMW M2, M3, or M4 with these specialized wheels, specifically designed for high-speed pit stops, even though swift tire changes may not be crucial.
For those unfamiliar with center lock wheels, here’s a quick overview: Instead of the typical five lug nuts found on sporty cars, a single dominant central nut is used to secure the wheels. It’s like the superhero of lug nuts, swooping in with a torque rating of 686 pound-feet. According to BMW, this is the torque required for the central nut on these wheels to ensure a secure connection. Let’s hope you won’t have to change a tire on the way to the track!
