2003 Mercedes-Benz CLK500 Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 2003 Mercedes-Benz CLK500 uses a 5x112 bolt pattern and comes standard with staggered 16-inch wheels: 16x7 at plus-37 offset in front and 16x8 at plus-30 offset in the rear. You can upgrade to matching 17- or 18-inch sizes, including front options like 17x7.5 and 18x7.5, or stay square-setup with 16x8 across both axles if preferred. All compatible sizes from 16 to 18 inches are available.
The 5x112 bolt pattern is your only fitment requirement—no other pattern will work. Your hub requires a 66.6mm center bore; if your wheel's bore is larger, use hub-centric rings to ensure proper centering and vibration-free performance. Avoid excessively wide wheels or overly aggressive negative offsets, as they risk contact with fenders and suspension components on this platform.
Every wheel in our inventory fits your CLK500 and ships free to the lower 48 states. Heritage Wheel, Aodhan, Motegi Racing, Work Wheels, Niche 1PC, Petrol, Rotiform 1PC, and MRR all have options ready to ship.
