Need more camber. What do you use for more camber specially the back.

 

I like to actually BEND my axle. Best results.

 

Adjustable camber arms.

 

Please dont do that to an innocent benz. These arent crappy hondas....

 

Depends on if it's a tad more for performance or a LOT more for over-ricey-ness... Also, it's subjective! I won't judge!


There are camber arm kits available for the rear, and also camber bushings.

 

I wasnt trying to sound rude btw. Im just saying that dont forget the class of these vehicles. A little lowered looks good. Just keep in mind the decreased driving experience. And the possible damage your vehicle could endure.

 

Me neither! Hope that didn't sound like a rebuttal to your statement!

 

Not at all. I thought I came off as a little rude.

 

K-MAC.COM has solution(s) that allow for camber/caster adjustments in the rear, and the extra resulting toe-in one needs to do a true 4 wheel alignment and receive a much better handling automobile.


Not to mention longer tire life as a result of the true 4 wheel alignment.


Without the K-MAC Rear Camber Caster Extra Toe-In kits you will need to invest in the tire company of your choice.

 

BTW, do our cars have slight camber in the rear as stock or is it just me?

 

Mercedes Benz builds the units with excessive negative camber caster in the rear.


When you have a "4 Wheel Alignment" done ask for the print out before and after
and you will see that the REAR CAMBER CASTER RED readings are there because no adjustment can be made in the rear and the readings are excessively negative.


The Print Out will show 'out of spec". This is the reality of there being no such thing as a 4 Wheel Alignment with a production vehicle.


The tire rotation masks the issue of this lack of proper adjustment, but it is very evident to vehicles that have the offset tires in the rear, which are usually found on the "Sport / AMG" models with the 950 or 952 package(s).


It is a safety issue also. But we live in monkeyland where most people do not realize nor do they care about this issue.


K-Mac units have 51 Patents associated with them and fixes this issue. If you choose the race versions they offer for the W204, you can do adjustment without having to remove struts etc. You need a wrench.


Your 30-100 rolling acceleration times will decrease .4 seconds if you have the M276 engine. To be clear the M276 engine, not the M272 that has the issues with the balance shaft. These were put in the W204s in late 2011 and through 2014.


I believe these kits were awarded PRI's (Performance Racing Industry) Product of The Show recently when the show was held in Orlando. Now it is in Indianapolis in December.


They will fix your issues and improve the safety and handling and yes acceleration of your automobile.


Also, to be clear I am not a K-MAC VAR or dealer. Just amazed how poor the design in the rear for proper alignment these units come with.


With the tire purchases and easy to show lack of safety (That is there but not adjustable) I did the research to fix the issue.


Do yours.

 

Thank you.
Guys, while I do appreciate everyone's view on these cars, I also like to remind you that everyone is entitled to do what they want on their vehicles.
I do like to change my cars a little bit from stock, always did, always will.
A Benz is a Benz, it is a car. Bmw guys are the worst at trying to tell other owners what is good for their cars. I've had bmw 335 a hated it, driving dynamics were fantastic, reliability the worst.

I also did mods to my 71 Mercedes 250c and on the 1972 bmw 2002.
Slight camber, lowered and little thing here and there saying it's my car.


I do want slight camber for the looks, nothing crazy like the japanese cars done these days but I do think that look suits them well.

Will check the camber link above. Thank you.

 

Absolutely sir!
