Do you think these rims would look out of place??
Basically they are 21' rims, I have never seen any this size on a third gen, i have heard rumors but have never seen it. here is the craigslist ad http://newyork.craigslist.org/que/pts/128602968.html, i am also wondering if these will fit thirdgens without adapters, any help would be appriciated.

Way too big, I would bet on serious rubbing issues somewhere. Even if they fit I say they would not look right. 18" is about the max I would go.

Yea, 18 is about the norm for larger rims, I just saw these at a pretty good price.

minus the beaded look around the inside edge, they'd look pretty sweet if they were 18's, 19's at the most.
good luck.

you would seriously have to consider running 20 series rubber or something smaller to even keep the car from being raised 1-2"....I doubt you could ever make it look good and be driveable
