The problem used to be the front hubs did not fit the 5x114.3 coil overs. So it would mean you needed to find a set or redrilled STi hubs.

You would need:
5x114.3 Hubs (new seals and bearings if used)
5x114.3 Brakes (brake lines, Calipers, Brackets, Rotors)
5x114.3 Axles (ends would be different but not sure on the r200)
5x114.3 Wheels
5x114.3 Coil overs (mount point to hub)

What I recommend is for everyone to hang tight. The wheel companies are playing catch up. Once they do the same wheels in 5x114.3 will be here for the 5x100. The nice part of 5x114.3 is the easier bear change, longer service life and wide wheels. Wide wheels are not going to matter much as there is only so much room for them. And your not making enough power to spin them. Remember light wheels for light power.
