I am not sure if the wheel will fit perfectly or not becuase most of the 16x7.5 have an ET of mid to high 30s. Another problem would be the tire size. You need 225/50/16 as the best option, or 205/55/16 do just as well. However, the 215/55/16 are a little to tall, and would probably harm your handling instead of improving it.

I would advice something like the SLK/CLK rims will fit your car. For instance, SLK 16x7 will fit your car ($109/each refinished Original Mercedes) and tires would be 225/50/16 another $100. Together a package would be less then $1000, so keep that in mind when looking for wheel/tire packages.
