I'd go for the third ones down, but yeah, I like the ADR Sterlings, I've got those for now and they look quite nice

Another pic... I think it suits the car quite nicely and gives it a cruiser look.

The Racing Hart C5 Evolution does not clear front brake calipers of the SC400, but it will fit the SC300 since it has slightly smaller calipers. All Racing Hart Evolution rims are offsetted for Honda's. Without the correct offset these wheels will look way too tuck in. What you wanna look for are multipiece Racing Harts with custom offsets to fit our cars.

Good luck.

I'm not a big fan of ADR but those M sport wheels look nice. If I was in your position, I would consider buying a used set of Volks for around the same price as buying a new set of ADR. But thats just me. Whatever swings your way bro. M sports get my vote out of the group.

Daizen,

My vote is for the ADR M-Sports. They are affordable, gives you a nice lip, and they look really nice IMO. I think there are a few pictures of SCs with those rims floating around. Just search for them.

Rush strictly for the unique styling and fat lip. I agree with you about the ADRs.
