Tire wear
Hello peeps it's been awhile,I've been having some premature issues,hahaha not that kind but some rear tire probs. I'm getting more wear on the inside of my tires than normal,I've looked over all suspension components and I don't see anything wrong or out of the ordinary. I did a little research and found some adjustable bushings that can and will replace the stock bushings. Any help or ideas with this matter would be appreciated.

Hello there. I too was alarmed at how badly the tire wears on the inner section. It is normal on AMG models and cannot be adjusted. However with aftermarket options today, you can get aftermarket rear camber adjusters installed which will then remove this issue you are experiencing. Have a look on google for rear camber adjusters for your model car and have them installed at someone reputable. Replacing bushings aint gona cut this one.
If you were experiencing the same problem with the front like I am, then you can replace bushings. But if that doesn't cure it then you would require the fluted bolts and then adjust them from there but this can only be done on the front as far as what I recall reading on this forum.
Good luck
