I don't think they will (not 100%), Wrx prodrive springs are Blue and sti ones are Red with different part numbers.

You can make them work, but you need 04sti style rear dampers as well as 04 sti top mounts for the rear. Shims would probably be a good idea for the rear as well to get the ride height back up (no saggy butt).

Personally I think you would just be better off picking up a set of wagon specific springs
