subaru changed wrx and sti bolt patterns for 05. 5x114.3 is actually a more popular patter and you should have more options for wheels
i think you may have to roll your fenders w/ 17x8 (depends on your tire width) if you lower your car. Try searching this forum, there's a lot of ppl that have 17x8s. You have a sedan right? 17x8 will definately not fit on a wagon.
my04 wagon w/ no mods 
1st mods are suspension upgrades that will come in the next 3-4 months
-17x7.5 rota torques or SDRs w/ bridgestone s-03s
-20 or 21mm rear sway bar w/ kartboy solid endlinks
-dunno about springs/struts yet -- i'm still researching
unfortunately my04-05 wagon owners got shafted with suspension options
as for rolling fenders - basically it's moving the inner fender lip up so that the tire doesn't rub against it. Some people do it themselves with a baseball bat and some get it professionally done.

They are genuine subaru parts,, what do you think about these?

yeah... i've been considering those. See my thread in the suspension forum about my dilemas 
My only issue w/ the sti "pink" wagon springs is that there are no struts to match. I'm not sure if I want to run them on my stock struts, but I've been told that they aren't that stiff that will be fine.

The Bolt pattern for 05 WRX's, and other non-STI models are STILL 5x100!!!
