I also suggest saving up for even nicer wheels.

What are the widths and offsets of the ADR's? If you can get a decent size and offset, then the ADR's will be fine.

I bought 18's and regret it after mounting them on. I personally think there too small for our cars. 19's are the way to go on the SC's.

Ya'll need to stop overfeeding yer dogs. They look very unhealthy haha

Please, NO chrome. Also, do some serious work to the headlight lenses, or replace them sir. Could be a winner.

Your wheels are sunken/tucked in LOL!

I have 18x8.5 +22 (Front) and 18x8.5 +25 (Rear) and those barely sit flush with my fenders.

Let me show you examples of how my wheels used to sit before I dropped it some more..

Wheel tastes are super subjective. Personally I don't go for that style myself.

Also as far as the 18/19 thing goes I have 18's on my ride and feel like they are just a hair small sometimes

Offset is too conservative, and 7.5 width is too narrow. you can fit a lot wider wheels. Those sem like a fwd car wheel with those specs. They look good, but I dont think you will be happy with them mounted.
