Is the bolt pattern different than the early 95 4 bolt hubs? If it is the same, you could always swap the hubs, but it would be more $ than adapters tho. Especially since the brakes would also need replaced. And there would be no rear disc options.

He's right. It has to be low/flush otherwise it won't look as good as you think.

Its 4x100 the early neon hubs are too weak and the brakes too small for one of my cars.

Get the wheel adapter, and about 7 degrees of camber. You'll have to shorten the rod on your struts and lower your spring perch, but it'll look siiiiiiiiick.

Make sure if it's a 7" wide wheel you can go no wider than a 185 tire.
