Default Will these fit??

Hello everyone,
I did some search and found out our stock speakers are 4"??? thats kinda small....anyways, i searched and saw that people are putting bigger speakers. I was wondering if anyone has experiance with these alpines?? they are kind of deep so I want to know if they will fit, before I buy them.

oh and my current system as of now is IVA-w203 head unit with a mono alpine amp and a 8" kicker free air sub.
will be upgrading to a 5 channel amp if I get the speakers

Thanks everybody

Why do you want to go bigger? With an amp (with real power) and a good tweaking of the EQ, your stocks can sound AWESOME or at the very least, another set of 4's will be fine. As for those fitting, I highly doubt it, the factory enclosure in there is pretty shallow, and even if you go free air (which will should horrible) the speaker will get in the way of the operation of the window rolling down. I say get your amp first and see what it sounds like. I pulled my 'upgrade' in size speakers out and put the stockers back in, Still surprised on how great they are keeping up with my high powered system, also spent some good time tweaking the EQ to make them sound awesome
