Say no to chrome and spinners!

I forgot one question, are they going to raise my car up a little? Id actually like it to prevent scraps on big dips. Doesnt happen often but its a nice peace of mind if its less likely to occur.

They should fit, and IMO they will definately look better than stock.

you shouldn't worry if other people don't like them,

its your car, your taste, your style.

but i do think they will look good on an FTO

they add a little extra something without being over the top 8)

they sure are, for every inch you go up by, car goes up by half an inch.

Look mate, don't listen to everyone else - they're telling you the wrong thing.

It IS COMPLETELY relevant what I think of your wheels, because while it may be your car, I have to look at it and shake my head and wonder what people think of FTO owners when they see your car (not naming any names).

So, simply, if you don't want people to tell you your wheels look like sh*t, don't post up on the forum asking 'what do you think of my wheels?'

Chrome or powder coated silver looks the best IMO, i hate coloured wheels (THERE ARE A FEW EXCEPTIONS) just not big ugly DISH PLATE chromies like ollie's (sorry ollie, but its just my opinion).
