Daily driver track day camber adjustments

I've started doing HPDE events in my 2017 c43 daily driver, now with 62,000 miles on it. My front tires (Nitto NT-01) wear on the outside and will need replacement early if this continues. Rears wear evenly.

Are there any products out there that would allow front camber adjustments just for the weekend? More importantly, adjust back and forth between known good settings so $150 alignments aren't needed each time. Not only do alignments add costs to a track weekend, but it's a hassle to go get them done.

Re C450 / C43 AMG - Having no Front Camber or Caster and no Rear Camber. Yes we cater now that the OEM industry no longer providing adjustment to resolve costly premature edge tire wear issues. Brought about by ever increasing speeds of new car assembly lines. Now only providing basic Toe - directional adjustment.

WE MANUFACTURE A TOTAL BOLT-ON SYSTEM

FRONT SUSPENSION:

#503416K $480 (Both Sides)
Replaces all 4 Front (highest wearing bushings) and provides both Camber and Caster adjustment.

Camber up to Extra 2 degrees Negative (and also widens track width) or 2 degrees extra Positive to resolve costly premature inner edge tire wear.

Fit without need for special tools or time consuming arm removal !

Unique K-MAC patented design also allows precise easily accessible single wrench adjustment (ultimate - “Under Load”).

Front Caster bushes are also Monoball / Self aligning significantly improving Brake and Steering response !


#503416-1i $345 (Both Sides) - Same features as above (But Camber only).



REAR SUSPENSION:

#502226K $480 (Both Sides) Camber (and Extra Toe to compensate) Also same features as front kits.


#502628K $480 (Both Sides)
Uprated performance bushings for the ‘6’ Rear Multi Link Arms. Less twist, flex, loss of rear wheel traction. Especially when applying power to lane change / overtake.

DHL delivery $40 one kit. $20 each extra.
