2005 SLK Wheels on 91 W124

I have found a nice set of wheels that I like and think they will fit but want the opinion of the "experts" here on the forum.

They are the 10 spoke wheels off of a 2005 SLK 350. I believe a 35mm offset will fit a SLK 350 which should work fine on the W124. Also, what do you think the W124 would look like with these wheels?

They do NOT have the center caps but have caps off the C230 wheels I have on the car now that I think will fit - otherwise I will have to find caps

I think this car has the same wheels (or close) - what do you all think of them?

Here are the specs on the wheels

Standard: 10-spoke design, 7.5J x17 front — 8.5J x17 rear
225/45 ZR17 front — 245/40 ZR17 rear,

I am fairly certain the fronts will fit but not so sure about the rears with it being a 8.5" wheel?????

lots of cars
Rear fits, basically any slk wheel fits on our cars. I have 18x8.5 now and ran 18x9 with a 39mm offset before with fenders rolled.

No rubbing issues - even with rear passengers?

Next question - what lug bolts will I need - I currently ahve wheels off a 2004 C230 with corresponding bolts - will these work or will I need different bolts. My understadning is the R171 bolts will NOT work.
