Have a gts and had to choose between centerlocks vs 5 lugs and I specc’d lugs because if you have a flat could get screwed since many places don’t have the specialized equipment to remove centerlocks and put them back on.
I can tell we both have/had centerlocks, because this is my same sentiment. People who have never owned them think they’re the best thing since sliced bread.
Once you do, you realize how much extra effort it takes to do tire changes, patches, even some services.

Yep, centerlocks look cool, but good luck living with them.
