Default ? on 16in Wheel that will fit rear 04 STI

What I'm trying to do is source a 16in wheels that I can mount studded tires on for ice racing. These will need to fit the rear Brembo's on my 04 STi.

I will change the front calipers to Subaru 4 pot or WRX brake calipers but the rears are much more trouble to change as you need to change the diff, axles etc.

I have tried WRX rims, no go. May be the RS rims will fit or if anyone has tried this I would appreciate any information.

Thanks. Nigel.

The RS wheels may well fit....they do clear the 4-pots and are a robust wheel.

The Forester XT wheels fit the Sti Brembo rears, it's tight but they fit. For the front you would have to use the old Sti 4-pots though.....god choice for say a winter rim.
