Default Changing alloys

Hi peeps

My first ever post here ( well i've just gone and brought a subaru for the first time).

Anyway its just a bog standard impreza 2.0 gx 2004 model (although so far I am very pleased with it). However its got those rather dull 15 inch alloys and I was wondering will the 17 inch wrx alloys fit? Seen some on ebay for a couple of hundred quid.

One more quick question what size rubber will i need? Would like the most comfortable size if possible (such as 215/50 etc).

Thanks for any advice.

std WRX alloys will go on just fine (only the later 2005 STi and newer you have to stay clear of)
Subaru used a fairly generic 5x100PCD across 99% ofits models for years.........

as for tyre size think they are 225/40 off hand
