What do you mean, what makes you think that they may not fit?

You need to be careful that they are not too long as well. If they are they can foul on the rear parking brake pads.

I see you are fitting these AMG wheels to a CLK320. Which model did the wheels come off?
There is a Part# embossed on the inside spoke along with the ET (offset)
That will tell you what car they came off and what size bolts you will need.

With a new wheel ,place a bolt through a bolt hole, you will see how short it is , go on ebay and find the original size in length and thread and add on the extra you require , I recon they'll only be 2 sizes ... your size you have now and maybe plus 10mm or 15 mm . As amgeed pointed out about the et , check all 4 are the same , 2 maybe for the rears you might only need 10 bolts , the fronts may fit on using existing bolts. 26 mm thread length.
