I have my SSRs from Tirerack as well - for GC8, I say go for the new 16" if you want performance - they are like 10lbs each. Otherwise, the 17" are good enough. These are not your normal dress up wheels - semi-solid forged, and there are some reports of them bending under various potholes, though nothing happened with mine. I don't think for 17" you can get anything cheaper than $375 per rim, let alone finding some place with the right size and offset for Subaru other than tirerack.

If you get them from Tirerack, just make sure you chose a Subaru application and the offset will be right. For 17x7.5, it's +50, and 16x7.5 (or x8??) it's +48 I think.
