Default New Wheels

I have been looking at different style 18" and 19" wheels (Mercedes OEMs and knock-offs) that are on eBay for sale. But, I need some technical advice before I make any decisions.

Would it be a accurate assumption that anything that will fit a late model Mercedes CLK will also fit the Crossfire? Does anybody know the offset of the Crossfire wheels? At what point of offset on a non-Crossfire wheel would spacers be necessary?

Thanks for any help on this question.

from my experience, looking at slk rims doesn't do much b/c most aftermarket SLK rims are between 17 and 18 inches, not 19 like in the Crossfire's rear!

Thanks for the information on the Crossfire wheels. The 35MM offset is a pretty standard offset, but the 22MM is a little different. There aren't many aftermarket wheels with a 22MM offset.
