Nice

However it's sitting on stilts with those horrible wheels.. Sort it out

[agentzigzag]

As gareth says, get some nice wheels on it and get it lowered, looks a bit 4x4 at the moment

I like the wheels, cant beat plain 5 spokes on a jap car. FTO's always look a bit like db7's from the front too!

Really needs lowering otherwise looks nice.

Mivec?
Manual?

Calm down lads!!!! only had it a week..... Im torn regarding the wheels, they do look better in the flesh than on the pics??? Its a GR model, so no mivec but is manual, did not fancy the semi automatic thing....next on list are full suspension kit, decat plus sports exhaust, then the brakes....any recommendations?

Suggestions? Lower it, different wheels and definetly an exhaust!

hi
keep the same wheels you have now mate they look fabulous and youll find that if you change then youll want to change them back to a 5 spoke alloy because they look a lot better.
if i were you i would just get a lowering kit or maybe some coilovers and then a bigger exhaust.

I think the wheels will suit the car it just needs lowering.

and get rid of the jaffas lol

Not trying to be funny, but is it very expensive to lower an FTO? It's just I see an awful lot of FTO's that are driving round with large wheels but on stilts? Great looking cars just please lower them it improves them 10X

[clairederrickfto]

not sure. i want to lower mine but i think i will have trouble with speed bumps and stuff if i do.

[swansea v6]

Ive been looking around for lowering springs/shocks but really don't know which to buy?? Looking for something to lower it by a few cm's bt without being too harsh?

delayed reply i know but have you joined the fto owners club?
