560SEL RIMS on a 300SD

I recently got a hold of a set of 560SEL rims and I would like to put them on my 82 300SD. They are a bit larger and it appears I need longer lug bolts.

Also, The wheel is 15" compared to the original 14". The 15" 560SEL rim is supposed to have a 205/65R/15. The recommended next step up on my car from Tirerack.com is 205/60R/15. Can I safely run the 65 on my car or do I need to go with a 60?

Do I need to do anything else to use these wheels?

I have 15's on my SD and I'm running a 225/65/15.

they are wide and make the car look and handle much better then the pizza cutters the car came with.
