Casey, I don't know for sure, but I can't see why that would NOT work, as long as the center hub diameter is correct. Remember the MB's are hubcentric, so that is a big deal. There are a *lot* of MB factory wheels in the 16x7.0 and 16x7.5 size with correct offset, at pretty decent prices if you're patient (say, $400 or less for a set with used tires). Do you just not like the looks of most of them? I had a set of 202 Sport wheels, and 208 (CLK) wheels, on my white car. Photos here, in case you missed them:
