Hey guys! New here and am currently in the middle of getting my ML63 to where I want it to be. Ive noticed with lowering links the factory wheels are a little bit to tucked in for my liking. Has anyone ran spacers or can anyone recommend spacers that fit? Im finding a lot of spacers say they wont fit factory wheels for some reason.

Here are some pictures of my ML so far

Tail pipes missing?
Lowering links will eat tyres on the inside, you would need to adjust the camber pushing to top of the tyre back out.
Mine is stock hight and on AMG sport + its all it needs for looks and ride.

Thank you sir. The tail pipes were at powder coating. Im aware of needing an alignment post lowering and how camber and toe works. What I am looking for is wheel spacers recommendations in the form of brands that work with factory wheels.

Im glad you are content with how you vehicle currently looks. For me I am not and would prefer the wheels to be flush with the body line.

But the fact is there is no front Camber or Caster to adjust OEM!

We saw the need therefore to reinstate from the early 90’s full and precise Front Camber and Caster (plus rear Camber and Toe that doubles the existing rear adjustment range).

Front kits designed to replace the ‘4’ lower arm (not upper) bushings therefore importantly still retaining top of tire to outer fender clearance.

For the “front only” you can purchase inaccurate one only offset position Caster bolts (not Camber). But they only offer a minimal 1/8” (3mm).

While the K-MAC unique patented design front kit is precise single wrench adjustment (accurately under load direct on alignment rack) resolving costly inner edge tire wear even if vehicle lowered 2” (50mm).

Also front kit includes the lower arm rear bushings which OEM are subject to premature failure and expensive to replace (these rear bushings are designed to also incorporate adjustable Caster).

Rear (Camber and Toe) kit is designed to double the existing adjustment range and replaces the four lower arm / highest wearing bushings at the same time. Similar to above Front kit, adjusting the lower arms therefore retaining clearance top of tire to outer fender.

Both front and rear kits include bush extraction tools.

Reviving this thread as I'd like to throw on a set of spacers on my OEM wheels

IMHO, the rears are already close to flush, so only fronts would visually "benefit" with spacers and if so not more than 10mm (do not forget 55mm R14 ball seat bolts).
