Well I won't say they cannot fit (a friend has 15" wheels on his STI) but it's extremely unlikely that they will and I wouldn't bet money on it.

Actually they might but I don't think anyone here can say that they will. Better safe than sorry. Heavier wheels are better for winter driving anyway. This is my belief.

You'll have to be careful about the offset, since it's less than the stock rims (i.e., don't go too wide with your tires, or they might rub). The bolt circle is right. You'll need to get hubcentric rings for them. They're actually slightly narrower than the stock rims.
