I've just found a set of 17 x 8 E350 wheels with a 48mm offset. They have new 245R45's on them. Wheels are in perfect - right off a new car that had new AMG's fitted. Can I use these on my '99 CLK? It has the stock 16 x 7 wheels with 37mm offset. Will I need to put spacers on. Also, the wheel studs from the E350 are about 3/8" shorter than the stock wheel studs. Will they need to be changed?
