Stick with the ones you've got, they're much nicer.

I don't think that style and size of wheel goes as well with the third gens.
Plus, you're going to need to use adapter spacers to make those work (has too much backspacing for the third gen).
Other than that....they're OK!

They look like they have a good amount of backspacing like 4th gen wheels do, plus they're an inch wider. By comparison, later 3rd gen, and 4th gen wheels are 8" wide. 4th gen wheels have about 6.5" of back-spacing and won't fit on a 3rd gen car without spacers. Take a tape measure with, at least you'll know what you're in for.

Too beat up for the price. Try to get them for cheaper and keep the factory wheels because you will get tired of these and want to put the originals back on.

I Sold my old ones, my car is on jackstands now. The old ones were verry beat up and looked like crap. I think these would look good.. I wish one of you guys could tell me they are nice looking lol.
