Will these wheels work without spacers
I fancy these wheels for my '06 CLK

I want to go with the 18's to keep some sidewall for a little more comfort. Does anyone know if these are direct bolt-on without spacers? The ad only say "high" for offset, not sure what that means.
Front Size: 18" x 8.5
Rear Size: 18" x 9.5
Bolt Pattern: 5 x 112
Offset: High
Thanks for any input.

how high offset? :P
i am running 8.5x19 ET35 in front on my car with 245/35-19 tires and i have the "old type pre facelift" amg calipers or mercedes sport package calipers. call them what you want. :P (four piston).
and i am not kidding if i tell you i have less than 3mm (0.11 inch) clearance between spokes and caliper.
so, if you have higher offset than 35, you will most likely need spacers.. lower offset would be fine, but not to low that the wheel is sticking out from the fender.

MBWorld Fanatic!
I think this is the same wheel as from MRR. I pulled this from their site.
GT01
18x85
5x112
35 (offset)
HS/MI (Hyper Silver with machined lip)
$300
They say a staggered configuration is available but I did not see an 18x9.5 listed in a 5x112 bolt pattern on their application chart. An 18x9.5 is listed on the header page however.
