Lug Nuts question please help
Hi everyone, just wondering if anyone of you know the size of the lugnuts that we have on our clk500s. I am buying a new set of lug nuts and wanted to make sure I have the right specifications on lug nuts. I think on CLK500s they are
12x1.5 conical lug bolt
If i were to purchase a new set of lug nuts, is that all the info i need or are there other things I need to know before I can buy?

Lug Nuts
I have a 2002 clk320, I just bought new amg rims from a 2005 e55.. The lug patterns fit, it seems that I may either need short lug nuts or a spacer. Which is a better route to go? And is that normal?

I assume you mean because your new wheels are a different design that have less metal at the mounting point. If that is the case, you absolutely want new bolts. Don't introduce spacers unless you must based on whether the wheel rubs somewhere - not because of the need for longer bolts. Just make sure the new bolts have the correct head - cone or round.
