Will the rim from a MB ML350, 17", 7.5" will fit a G35x '08? I'm not sure about the offset and the bolt placement (though there are 5 bolts).

A quick google search for "mercedes ml350 bolt pattern" yields your answer; no, they will not fit. Mercedes bolt pattern is 5x114.5.

Last I checked, the G35 along with most other non-european 5-lug patterns are 5 x 114.3 (4.5 inches). Perhaps you mixed them up as it seems the ML350 may be sporting a 5x112 pattern in my search.

98-04 VW Passat, Audi A4 and A6 are 114.3 X 5. Both had BBS wheels as options.

Correct. I know the bolt pattern for the G35 is 5x114.3. I guess I just looked at the wrong numbers when I stated 5x114.5 for the MB.

Either way, they won't fit.

Most Audis, including the A4, as well as MB are 5x112, not 114.3. BMW is 5x120.

Gash I always hated this bolt patterns. Why not just standardize the size and you can use everything.

MB is 5x112

Infiniti/Nissan is 5.114.3 or 5x4.5

now, you CAN get these to fit via a bolt pattern conversion kit

I wouldn't recommend it though
