Jorge, what about the RDMTEK rear camber kit. It works by pulling the lower control arm in, bringing the bottom of the tire in, whereas the other "camber arms" push the top of the tire out, closer to the fender. Kmac are rumored to make a squeaking noise by some of the users.

Rear Suspension Components: Standard and Shortened Lower Control Arms to
reduce Camber and Adjust Rear Toe, for W124, W201, W202, W203, W208, W209,
W210, R129, and R170 CHASSIS
I've got the RDMTEK front and rear camber kits/camber plates on my 500E, I got my alignment nearly perfect (-1degree at all four corners, with H&R springs).

I want to try out the KMAC kit first then if I still don't like it, I'll check yours out or maybe Len's too as he has some available for these cars.
I bought the KMAC kit last Friday so it should be here next week...we'll see after the install

I am using SPC Performance rear camber bushings (just released 4-5mo ago). I have put nearly 13,000 miles on them with no issues so far. They are HD rubber as opposed to the K-Mac kit which is red urethane. With Eibach Springs and Bilstein Sports, my car rides very nicely. It brought the negative camber in the rear from -3.5 to -1.2~.
If you are interested in the SPC bushings, PM ME, I can get them....they are nearly half as much as the K-MAC kit too

I've got Kmac on my cabrio. They're alright, at the time that was all that was available and I paid an arm and a leg for them direct for Australia.
When I do it again I will got with RMDTEK components. For the rear control arms there are less moving parts than the Kmac kit. A member from 500Ect said he heard creaking with the Kmac kit coming from his rear, switch to the RDMTEK control arms and it was gone.

I just got the benzboy arms in. Negative camber was MEAN with the stagged mono II's and intraxs in but tire wear was also mean. Just got a appointment at a specialty shop as no one will touch a lowered Mercedes around here. So far (with camber adjustments by eye) they solve the problem. However now that my allready wide rears are stuck out another .5-1" my fenders are going to need some attention big time.
