Found a deal on Nasioc, and it'll be here in a couple days.
On another note, I (think I) know all the '02-03 WRX had the four-spoke Momo wheels, but did all the '04-'05 have three spoke Momo wheels, or was it an option, and standard was the same leather three spoker as I have in my '07?

I think all the STi's and WRX's '04+ came with the smaller diameter 3 spoke wheels. The 4 spoke Momos were only on bugeye WRX's. But really they are the same large 4 spoke wheels that have been coming on all Subarus since the '90s. The 4 spoke wheel from my '94 SVX is identical to the Momo off my '02 WRX except it's brown and doesn't say "Momo" on it.
In short: the Momo's came only in '02 and '03 IIRC, but there's nothing special about the Momo wheels, they're just labels. I think the smaller wheels are nicer just for the quicker steering feel... though I like 4 spokes better in general just because you can hang a hand from the center of the wheel on long drives.
