If they are SL wheels, the 17" diameter is not a problem. However, you need to check the offsets. The SL used 17" wheels early on so this is possible - just gotta get the offset right.

I didnt know r230 came with 17's. I thought stock wheels were 18's only. I guess ill look around for some stock 17's if the one off craigslist dont fit. They're off of a R129.

Yes, the current SL (R230) had 17s as standard in the first model year 2003 (CY2002). You may be able to find a set cheaply as everyone was likely looking to upgrade - if they have not already.
