Camber help!
Just lowered my c63s. Found out that I need a front camber kit from Kmac. Ordered. What about the back? Do I need to spend another 500$? How long does install take? Heard Mercedes makes a bushing for 100$ but cannot find part number. Lowered people help!!!

Idk I was bagged without them. On kw v3 pretty low without the camber kit. I'm fine with the negative camber but if it's worth the money to you than go for it

Idk man, im reading that camber on these cars is either impossible due to no adjustment bolt or very very little adjustment.. still confused. I ordered that kmac kit. I have tire warranty but im super OCD about having my alignment perfect lol.

1. What did you lower with? I'm going with KW HAS and am curious if i need to order hte same before i have them installed.
2. How long did hte install take? My local shops are telling me it's gonna take 5-6 hours for install of KW HAS, but that seems a little cray to me. These things aren't crazy access or anything--or what am i missing?
Feel free to DM me instead if this is a all-out hijack haha

Yeah that's what I'm worried about too.. but i'm hoping the fact it's adjustable... maybe you can avoid it if you don't go all the way to the lowest setting?

Hey guys,
Check out out my threads - RDO247.
I highly recommend fitting K-Mac Camber Kits to both front and rear of our cars factory height and lowered.
Better to spend money on improving your car rather then constantly fixing and maintaining.
Our cars do not have camber adjustment nor caster and I went through 3 sets of tyres in 18 months due to premature wear on the front and rear.
First set I was at factory height, other sets when I lowered 20mm on KW HAS.
I updated my K-Mac Camber Kit thread a day or two ago after having run it for a year now.
Pictures of of the front and rear tyre wear is pretty much even across the tread with plenty of life left in them.
If you have any other questions feel free to ask.
Oh, front camber -1.5 degrees, rear camber -1 degrees.
