Wheel sizing help needed

Does anyone know if wheels for a Mazda 3s will fit a WRX?

I was checking for Winter tires and noticed that one of the alternate sizes listed at tirerack.com for the WRX is the same exact size as the Mazda 3s (205/50-17). Choosing wheels based on that size brings up the same list. Does anyone know if the bolt pattern and offset are the same?
 
Depends what model WRX, some are 5x100 some are 5x114
Mazda 3 is 5x114

Also you need to check the hub bore sizes

Offsets for both should be 45~55 so I wouldn't worry about offset alone
 
Thanks!

I did more checking and I don't think it would work. According to tirerack.com...

2005 Mazda 3s
bolt pattern 5-114

2011 WRX
bolt pattern 5-100

So much for re-using the wheels.
