J your new rims kinda remind me of Gabico's evo7 rims, if I was gonna change my rims they would be my first choice.
Best lookin rims for FTO imo. I reckon there'd be some difference in price though :D

Nice clean looking FTO with subtle mods. Would improve the stance somewhat with a set of lowering springs.

Perhaps think about getting the springs before you shell out on the facelift bumper. Without them, the car looks like it's on stilts.
