but the yellow painted 2.0 Fuchs on the Japanese LE are pretty cool.

16" Fuchs

thread is about 4 lug but if you want to go there 16x7.5

I'm a fan of the Minilites too, but the Revolutions are good looking too. Recently saw this car on Craigslist for sale, and I really like these. They are called Cromodoras...

Fantastic !

Actually ATS..... a very good choice.
Missed a set of four with a car attached a few years ago.

? 7.5" ....now that is rare.

Back to the original question
Milspec Minilite 6.5 x 15 4 lug later version aluminum. Fits stock fenders.

This is why we get along so well Len.

These are awesome! Just need some brown bell bottoms, a paisley shirt, and a Richard Petty mustache to complete the look. But I suppose you could say that about any 914.

Off topic;
15" ? ORIGINAL Magnesium Minilite MMMMMM !

Actually not ATS. Cromodora CD 36. As far as I can tell, it's an Italian made magnesium wheel around 11 lbs,.... 14x6 in dimension. Looks like Cromodora makes a lot of wheels for Fiat, Alpha Romeo, and Ferrari.

Cromodora did indeed make wheels for those brands, including Alfa.

Oh, thanks - I hadn't considered that! Yes I think these will be no good for the 914 as backspace is about 100mm and offset 19mm. Back on eBay with them.....

I stand corrected.
They are so similar it is easy to be mistaken.
Google it and a set of ATS comes up on Pelican sold in 2014.
Notice the placement of the valve.

My vote would be these......

The minilite style is nice.

Well ATS is a wheel manufacturer and thay make the Cookie Cutters Porsche used for so many years.
They also made a wheel that looks like those pictured.
I can see the marking on the wheels on the car pictured to tell who made them.

But it is clear in this picture that it is an ATS wheeel that looks the same or very similar.

Not to beat a dead horse, but the car is currently for sale on the North Port, FL craigslist and the owner clearly states the wheels are Cromodoras. Yes, ATS does make rims, and the ones pictured are very similar.

As previously stated, the valve stem is in a different place...there are other slight differences....I think the spokes are wider on the Cromodoras. The Cromodora is also a 6" wide wheel, instead of the 5.5. I haven't researched the ATS wheels, but magnesium is pretty light weight, so I doubt the ATS wheels are as light. Down side, the cd 36's appear to be only 14" and are probably hard to find. Took the following pic and info off the autobelle website.

Love my 6x15 steelies and Pedrini's....Click to view attachmentClick to view attachment

Great pics!

these are for truimph tr6, I had to offset rear trailing arms in, used a bus irs axle,,the front is stock hub fit, redrilled to TRbolt pattern
they where new and a great deal , so I made em work

Well done! I like it.

4 lug? Fuchs, Mahle or minilites,
5 lug? Fuchs, 15'', or 16 but even the 14's are nice too. 16x6'' on mine

My first car was a 914 with American Racing Lemans wheels running a set of low profile fulda tires. It looked AWESOME.
The real bummer is that I don't have even a single picture.

6.5 X 15 minilites.

I tend to agree that cookies look the best on a 914, but you need that 5 lug setup to run them.

Side note - love the Copper Metallic

That's just a stunning car, and a reminder when a car is truly well turned out, it looks great almost no matter what.

Loved the ATS Wheel on my white '74. Imported them from Germany at the time. There still on the car today.

Interesting.... I replaced the stock wheels on my '71 Volvo (P)1800E - which were called "Cloverleafs", they were magnesium centered and riveted Cromodoras. I replaced them with the wheels being discussed which were definately ATS. So the question is - do (did) both wheel companies do the same wheel?

Well I don't know what the wheel model or style is of the ATS wheel that I posted a picture of but it is clearly not the same wheel as Craig posted. They are both one piece cast wheels with similar design. The picture I posted shows ATS and what I think is 5.5 15 for size. Craig's picture shows cromodora and what looks like 14 6J for size.
I'm sure ATS makes or made many different wheel model/styles over the years just as Fuchs and BBS and any other wheel manufacturer did. ATS made the Cookie Cutters for 911s and 944s, the ATS wheel I and others pictured here and the wheel you just described.
I would guess there have been names that were similar or even the same as well. My Audi S4 had Fuchs on it from the factory and I still have a set of Audi BBS wheels that came with the S4.

Well, I like many different types of wheels, but my favorites are those that came from Porsche...
