No, wrong offset and bolts.

Harris is right. S500 Bolts are 14mm and CLK uses 12mm. A 12mm round lugbolt does not 'seat' correctely in a 14mm seat on the wheels. In order to use the 14mm lugbolts you need to redrill the brake hubs.

S-Class offsets are high and putting them on CLK will push the wheel inward to far. You would need to use a spacer to keep the wheel from going in to far.

Recommend buying a used set of OEM CLK Mercedes wheels like the ones you have or similar.
