949 Racing is based out of Industry, CA and they have been incredibly popular with mostly Miata autocross guys and NASA racers. Just recently they started branching out into other Mazda makes, s2000 fitments, and now Subaru fitments.

The NC (3rd gen) miata/mx5 actually shares a pretty close fitment spec to the STI Imprezas, so that's always been an option.

Just in the last year or so it looks like they started considering 5x100 fitments as well.

Quality wise, I put these wheels right up next to the Enkei RPF1; pressure cast, lightweight, relatively affordable wheels. They dont make super high-end forged stuff though, the product line is mostly focused on the budget/amateur racing crowd.
