Default SSR Professor SP1 17x8?

I was wondering if this was a fair deal on these wheels and if someone could help me figure out whether or not they will fit on my car. I have pitures of the car that I could email but the car is running stock shocks with Tein springs (it came like that when I bought it). I'm going to by a new suspension but I wanted to see if the wheels would fit right now.

SSR Professor SP1 17x8 +49 for WRX (please choose black, silver or SBC) $443.75 $25.00

I was looking at putting coilovers on the car as well and was wondering what the difference is between these 2 sets from Tanabe

Tanabe Sustec Pro S-OC II Coilovers
Tanabe Sustec Pro S-OC Coilovers

and if anyone could tell me how much lower the car would be from stock and if I could run the 17x8 with either of those. TIA

I was just looking at those wheels on tirerack..I wanted a black wheel and these are the only ones..I was hoping for that price though they were forged. I believe they are cast.
