Hi markd,
Width, Diameter, PCD and number of bolts/lugs are OK. But if "MGM Rim Center Line: 57.1mm" means centre bore then it would be too small: you'd need 66.6mm centre bore like Mercedes rims have. Since the offset of 42mm is a little high also, you'd probably need spacers (standard offset is app. 30mm), depending on the tyre size you are aiming for. You might also want to check if the rims have a suitable load rating
Cheers, André
