Yes, the "05 / 06" STI 's will fit. Just swapped my stock wheels yesterday with the gold STI's / Pirelli P-Zero Nero M&S against a Polo Green paint. As long as they're 05 or newer, fit like a charm. I also started arming & alarming the car everytime it's parked. Didn't matter so much before but the new wheel set changes that.

Really? How much do you pay per wheel? I'm looking at getting a full size spare.

Mine came off an 05 STI that was modded & the wheels changed. A few small rock chips on one were the only blemishes. Searching craigslist for larger cities / metropolitan areas should eventually turn something up. Also NASOIC (The Subaru Impreza site) will have a set from time to time. But list prices from Subaru will discourage you, if I'm not mistaken a bit over 700.00 each. A complete set may be had for about that much if you come onto the right deal. I'll post a photo to show what gold on Polo green looks like, pretty sweet combo.
