    Im assuming you just need to change the rotors and put ones with different stud pattern on it (that like a couple hundred $ maybe), but the big question is why would you want to?

    Firsty why do you want to change it? and what do you want to change it to?

    Only way i can see of changing it would need custom hubs and brake rotors, would be expensive

    it would be cheaper to redrill the wheels, about $30 per wheel, in saying that, WRX are over a 50mm offset, so they will probably go in too far and foul on the struts, I would just get the correct wheel for the car as spacers are crap.

    The stud pattern will be stamped somewher on the iside of the wheel as well.
