ATS vs Chromodora

I have been looking at some Chromodora wheels for my Junior. Now, I was offered these:

- but the guy tells me they are ATS?!

This is a set of Chromodoras that I was offered:

Now, they sure do look the same to me. I can tell a slight difference - but are any of them more desirable than the others? (the price is about the same)

Personally, for a Junior I would stick with the stock steel rims and hub caps. You can go with a wider lower profile tire. Or do like italcarguy's doing, and have the steel wheels widenend.

OTOH, Panasports add a classic look.

Again, this is just my opinion. Many people put the daytona style chromodoras on their Bertone coupes.

I do like the Panasports a lot, however - thing is that here in Europe they are known as Minilites:

- and is a very british thing. They are almost only fitted to british cars. With that in mind, it seems a bit "wrong" to me, to have Minilites on an italian car - although it would look good. I had them on my Triumph Spitfire, and they did look great.

I can see your point about the minilites/panasports being a British thing.

I put these meaty 195/60's on my stock 15x4.5 steel rims. Should be the same rim size you have. My tires may be a little too wide. 185/65's would be fine.
