Spacer question

I need a pair H&R 10mm spacers for my rear of my car. Since I have 06 CLS when I called H&R, they told me that they never test this car and their concern is the height (not width) of the hub. I thought all MB have the same width and height of the hub. I thought as long as Mercedes hub centric it will be no problem...

Can someone share with me that their Mercedes spacers experience?
Are they one hub centric measurement for all?
Any safety concern?

Thanks in advance,
hlkc

All that rear suspension stuff is straight off the W211 E-class... 211 part numbers for the hubs/axles/etc. This is why the lower offset wheels are used to help push the wheels out into the CLS' wider body despite having a narrow rear axle.

So the same H&R parts for W211 will work.
