As with all wheels, you need to know the dimension/size and offset. I have seen a guy here with 20" wheels on his 4th gen. So to answer your question yes, with the right size, offset and tire size.

The Capris will as long as they're the FWD offset (38). Recommended tire size is 225/35, but if you're not dropped you should be able to get away with 245/35. Contact me at on here or at www.20somethingwheels.com if you need any help.

they will not rub for sure with 245/35/20, if you put 255/35/20 with a 38mm offset they might rub when you turn but it wont be anything harsh it will even sand down that end

yes they will fit I'm gettin ready to do 20" rims on my 4th gen 96 w/ a 35mm offset. it all depends on lowering, tire size, and offset. I put 22's on a maxima at my work last week. stock height looked dumb IMO but fit w/ no rubbing

Foetray's right. I just put 20s on my maxima with a 45 mm offset and 245/35 tires. No rubbing on my car, but it's bagged.
