'06 and '07 WRXs got the 17"s to clear the 4 pot front/2 pot rear brakes that were standard those 2 years.

'08 still have 17"s, but back to twin piston/ single piston sliding calipers.

So the WRX brakes wont fit under the 16"rims?

depends on which year of wrx brakes you have.
the 16's that i have on my car fit over the wrx brakes on my car

So here is one of the wheels while being painted...

Not quite gunmetal, but definitely darker than the original paint...

It was the darkest I could find.
