Hmm... my top 5 choices for rims are:
Lowenhart BR5 (non-chrome)
Carlsson 2/5s (non-chrome)
Brabus Mono V & VI (multipiece, non-chrome)
any Mesh design rim (BBS LM, HRE 440/540, ADR M-classic, iForge Seneka, etc...)

well... for a newbie, its ok... i don't believe most car buyers know their car's chassis number...

but yes, W208 is the 98-2002 clk coupe, and 99-03 cabriolet.

W209 is the 2003+ coupe, and 2004+ cabriolet
