No - as Danny says, the holes won't even line up.

Nothing can be done without changing the hubs. It's the spacing of the bolt holes that is different.

Just to add, the PCD changed to 5 x 114 on 05 STis - but if you've got these wheels fitted on your car already then they will be the 5x100 PCD.

It's not the offset that is the problem, it the space with regards to the 5 wholes that go on the studs on the hub, they made the space bigger ie from 100mm up to 114.5mm,

Have a look on page two of this web site which explains what we are on about.

basically if the car has the rear arch extensions on (indicating the wider track) then that's the bigger PCD wheels.

can be a bit misleading qouting model year as i've seen a 54 import sti with the larger PCD wheels/A-DCCD/arch extensions (basically a late 2004 with a 2005 spec)

measuring the PCD is the best way to make sure and even stevie wonder will tell the 14mm difference
