needs some rims... but only things ill go for is 22" .... why is it that some rims dont fit on fto's ? tried 19" on em a couple weeks ago and the suspension was sitting right on top of the rims...
and was thinking bout getting rid of the spoiler !!!

WTTC nice ride
I think the FTOs look hot with the wings but thats just me
rims have a look around as there are all typs some will fit and others wont as you have found out already
18s go really well give that a try

Noice car...
Looks the same as mine when i first bought it...
The midnight BLue is a rare colour. Well sorta rare anyway...
18's will be the biggest you can probably go.
have seen 20s on one... but they made the car look ugly... also the car sat like a foot off the ground.
You'll enjoy your new purchase though... FTOs are an addiction...
Im up around $50k on mine so far... lol
If you need good deal on photography, let me know.

Got any pics of the stereo set up ...
What TV screen you lookin for ...
In my other car, I had a Response 7" widescreen in the front (and also a JVC roof mount) with a AXIS DVD player in the boot ... Was a great set up, picture was pretty good, and the screen was only $200-$300 ...
