99CLK320,
I would get a second opinion. The only way of adjusting the front, to my knowledge, is by adding camber bolts that are the listed for the C model. So a Search in the 208 forum using camber as your search word and you should find a discussion. Only way to adjust the rear is to add adjustable camber arms made by ghostrider. that is if he still has some.

You can get cabre bolts direct from dealer, they are not expensive... they are used for the Brabus alignment and have a clever grove in them that allows for 3mm movement.

I bought them and my tyres wear fine.
