Default A quick question from a Subaru novice

Hi all
I'm new to Subaru's and have just bought a 95 import WRX
Can anyone tell me if these wheels will fit it (see ebay link below) as at the moment it has 16" Oz Supr T's and i hate them.
Cheers Jules..

If they have Newage tyres on then a change is required.

eg 215/45/17 Newage = 215/40/17 Classic.
