Question regarding C32 AMG spacer..

I have a problem fitting 18x8 AMG Dualspoke wheels originally bought for a 2003 CL500 NON SPORT onto a 2003 C32 AMG. They bolt up fine, but do not fit over the Brembo/AMG Caliper.... The rears (18x9) fit with a tiny bit of clearance.

I know I need a spacer to fit, I just need to decide what Spacer and what size. I assume I should go line the wheel up the the hub, then measure how much room it needs...and buy a spacer and corresponding bolts for that size?

Please give me a website with varying spacer sizes and bolts.

Thanks.

I put 3 mm spacers to clear my C32 AMG brakes with 7.5 x 17 AMG wheels, just temporary cause I ordered 18" ST4's.
If you wan't to stick with the spacers, get hub centered ones from H&R
