K-mac

makes a good unit,however I think you can do better on price look at the k-mac web site in Australia for the link to US distributors.
Can't you get camber eccentrics for your model?
How far off spec are you?And was the blow out from wear to the inner belt or contact with the fender or suspension?

that's the only one that i can find for a cls. not sure how far i am off spec, but seems like I have to go through a set of front tires, every 6-8 months. The center and outer rim of the tire is practically brand new, but the inner edge is completely trashed. The rears however, is wearing out perfectly.

I dont even leave my car as low as many of the folks on here. usually with the 3 front, 4 rear renntech elm setting.

If anyone makes a

bigger diameter sway bar it may help the neg camber also.What size tires and offsets are you running on the rims?K-mac is nice because the bushings are renewable when enough wear gets to them.
Have you had the dealer load height and align it on the hunter machine?

I'm in the same boat, I can get maybe 6k miles out of my rear set, I've had it aligned but they can't bring it to spec. It's lowered with 20's

I emailed these guys asking if they have a set for the 55, never heard back.

One of the places I took my car too said they had an OEM camber kit for 180 they were supposed to order for me. I blew one of my tires on the front as well. The inside of the tire was completely shredded up. I've never seen anything like it.
