Default Stupid question from a newbie

I'm looking at getting a 2005 WRX wagon SL 'ppp', hopefully picking it up new weekend subject to an 'AA' inspection. Now I know the car needs 4 new tyres after looking at it today. Thought I would see what it's going to cost to replace them. But DOH I forgot to check the size/rating of the tyres. So the question is what is the standard tyre for a 2005 WRXwagon?

IIRC 215/45/17. Not sure on the rating but look at Vredestein Sessanta, Toyo T1R or Goodyear F1 GSD3.

Wont get Sessanta in 215/45, well i cannot find them anyway.
I have been looking for some myself, all the 3 mentioned above are awesome, the only one left off that list, when they are available, are the new F1 Asymmetric's. Again, these are like rocking horse **** in the 215/45 size as they aint out yet.
I am hoping my tyres last me till they do come out. lol.
