16" stock wheel size?
I bought some 16" S-class wheels off eBay, and the seller said they were stock from a 2002. Anyone know what the specs are on the wheels?
I'm going to put them on a CLK if they will fit (winter setup).
I'm looking for:
Wheel Width
Offset
Approximate wheel weight (I can weight them when I get the used tires off them)
Thanks for your help!

Crap!
Okay, thanks.
I'll have to go double check the bolts that came with the wheels.
So the W208 is built off the W202 platform? That doesn' t make sense to me.

AlBoston, I also recently bought wheels from ebay. I got 20" wheels which came off an ml. would the rim itself fit the s class without any problems? i'm not sure if the offsets are the same that's why i ask. they're 9" wide, 20" big so i'm planning on putting 255/35/20's on them. any feedback would be appreciated.

The bolts will not work if it came with the S class wheels, HOWEVER, your bolts should work fine.
Now.. as for the OFFSETS, you're screwed because you may not have enough clearance for the brakes. I could be wrong, but CLK, E, and SL have the same offsets and wheels are interchangable, but when it comes to the CL and the S, they're different and will not fit.
