Hi guys, I'm looking at some ATS wheels. The question I have is, were they all made with a 5.5inch width, or are there wider versions?

Here's an example of the wheel I'm of I'm looking at for those who don't know what they look like (Note: this isn't the exact wheel I'm debating buying)

They also in 7", 9" rare and 11" very rare available.
9" and 11" are very hard to find.

Thanks Wilco. I think I found some in 7" (they come on a local car) and was wondering if that size existed.

I like the look, and I must add that your car is very nice.

Some 5.5 were in 14" as well. Hard to get good tires for them now.

just make sure the seller measured them correctly....some boneheads measure rims outside to outside which is not right...

Hi Ferg,
we talk about the four lugs.
That ATS makes 6" in five lug is not a theme that's clear.

Since they were from the same cast, I thought it would be helpful.

here is a page taken from the 4 bolt wheel thread, with everthing one would want to know about early ATS wheels, clearly shows 15x6's are real.

Hi Ferg,
thanks for the List.
In Germany they never offered the 6"
It's very interesting that they do this in the RoW
