My Ateca Xcellence has multi spoke alloys and they are a pain to keep clean and they don't look particularly exciting:

I am looking to replace them with FR alloys, or possibly SE alloys. I want to stick with genuine Seat Ateca parts.

If I get a set of alloys like these ones on eBay, will they swap straight over? Can I use the existing wheel nuts etc?

Yes you can. The tyres should be ok too if they're a set off another Ateca as they all share the same rolling circumference.

You can also use a large number of VAG group OEM wheels should you choose as they all share the 112 x 5 bolt pattern. You can use https://www.willtheyfit.com/ and https://www.wheel-size.com/ to check. Things to be aware of are centre bore diameter (spigot rings can reduce it, as I did with some Audi Q7 wheels on my Ateca), the offset (or ET) value - yours will be 45mm I expect, so anything of that offset or lower (mine were 39mm) will clear your brakes. Obviously rim size to also clear brakes (I run winter rims usually 1-2" smaller diamter than summers).
