SL Wheels

I have a chance to purchase a set of Factory AMG wheels(17x7.5 +17x8.5) off of a CLK 430. Will these fit a '94 SL320-500?
Any help greatly appreciated.
Keith

Checking here: http://www.alloywheelsdirect.net/mercedes_wheel_fitments.pdf looks like they're about 30mm offset and the SL looks like 18?

Thanks for the help I had no seen that page my SL is a '94 (16x8 with a 34 offset) so more research is needed.

You'll be fine (provided the wheels are ET37 front and ET30 rear) as listed on the site above.

Your front wheels will be 9mm further from the fender and be 3mm further from the tie-rods.
Your rear wheels will be 10mm closer to the fender and will be 2mm closer to the rear suspension.

Those numbers look fine to me, you just have to see how close you are currently to your fenders and if you'll like that staggered look.

Dunno, but why buy a odd size when you can purchase the correct 18X8 and 18X9 for probably the same price
