any other OE Mercedes 17" wheels fit over C32/55 front calipers?
I've got a '99 C43, but have acquired a set of C32/55 calipers, to go with new discs too.
I know my 17" and 18" Monoblocks will fit with a small 3mm spacer. I'm wondering if there are any other OE Mercedes wheels in 17" that will fit (other than the stock twin spoke AMG wheels of course). I'm looking at other options in case I find the 18s too harsh with lower profile rubber (I haven't even run them yet, just test fit).
For instance, will the W203 sport package wheels fit? I think they are 17s?

Have always liked that wheel, but I understand the sport 203s run a 330mm disc, not a 345mm like the C32/55.
I'm not hugely keen on running huge spacers, as the car is lowered and I'm a bit afraid of fender/tire clearance. Any input appreciated.

I bought a set of factory AMG wheels off of a 2005 SLK350. They fit the C32 perfectly and they look great. Email me if you want a pic.
