Should.
The 05 & 06 STi's share the 5x114.3 bolt pattern. All WRX models share 5X100.
(Disclaimer) according to all the info I have seen here and on other forums

the wider spacing on the bolt pattern 5 x 114.3 is intended to provide better holding vs. the 5 x 100.
Most JDM cars went from 4 x 114.3 (back in the late 80's early 90's) to a 5 x 114.3 when the cars got over 220hp ratings.
Subaru and Honda were the last (I believe) to stick with the 5 x 100 set ups.

What, do they not want people to put the STI rims on lower end Imprezas?
