+1 - You & John are spot on as usual - Aside from camber I'm suspicious of Toe & would dial in max allowed by spec to help offset camber issues with wider wheels.

ya i was convinced i had bad camber but i took it to MB dealer for a real alignment after they fudged a repair up on my car so they gave me a free alignment. I bought the adjustable bolts and asked them to adjust the camber and they came back afterward sayingt my camber was perfectly inline with specs but an alignment was def needed. So now im out for a loss. Maybe they were already worn before idk...
