225 on stock rims?
I was wondering if 225s will fit on the stock WRX rims? I do Solo II and I don't really have the money for new wheels right now. Thanks.

Psycho,
Sorry about the delay. The 225/50s will fit well on stock 16" WRX wheels. I frequently recommend it. I have seen it first hand on wagons and sedans and it's a nice upgrade. It's a quick and inexpensive way to drastically improve your handling.

That depends on your air pressure - the 225/50s are listed to fit wheels between 6 and 8" wide, so the 6.5" WRX wheel won't inherently cause the crowning. Higher air pressure would increase the risk of crowning, but could be quickly remedied using a pyrometer immediately after running to see where the tire's being worked and adjusting air pressure accordingly.
