My 16"  CLK alloys from the 98-02 era needed no boring on the center and
a 9/16" drill bit opened up the lug holes.  T3 fixed me up with the
right length studs for the front rotors(although they might've been a
bit long in relaity, I got them long in case I needed a spacer.  The
fronts needed no spacer, but you have 15's and that may be  an issue.
T-3 got me the right lugs and now it's time to buy their front and rear
rebuild kits.  My vandeserves it!!
