FatTony, I guess I menat this for you:
Flame, since you have the 05 CLk 500 with the 6 piston front calipers - I'm wondering if you could do me a favor. When it's convenient, can you take a look at your spare tire and let me know what the part # is? I can't use my 03CLK500 spare anymore and have been trying to find a replacement. Thanks!
Hope you can help!

That's a good @ss idea - I never thought of that. The only thing is, I'm less worried about a flat becasue of tire damage (I can just throw a compressor and fix-a-flat in the trunk), and more worried about bustin up the rims and having to wait a couple of weeks for a new rim. So I would prefer to have a spare that I can drive on, slowly for about a week or so.

Which brings me to my next point. You should just my stock AMG wheels+tires for spare

That's cuz I've busted up 3 19" Brabus rims in a span of 2 years for a cost of $3600. Left me traumitized. It's probbaly not a big deal, I bet my cheaper new 19's are stronger. I do have a backup set - my 18" Brabus wheels although I'm might be trying to get rid of them also. I think I may throw a compressor/fix a flat, and my stock spare back in my trunk and call it a day.
Speaking of which it's kind of funny - one of the reasons I went back to 19's was to upsize my front brakes, but it turns out my 18" Brabus wheels clears the 6 pot calipers. I culd use the front rim as a spare, but I don't want to lug it around all the time in the trunk.

All you have to do is find an Clk 63 on Ebay and get the VIN# fromt it. Then call the dealer.
