2007 Mercedes S 500 Suspension
Good Day,
I'm the owner of a 2007 Mercedes S 500 with 22in Rims and suspension changed to Strut Masters Suspension System. I'm currently have a issue whenever the car is loaded with additional weight in the rear the tire rub on to the shock. If I change back to the air suspension would this correct the issue? Also I'm in the process of changing out all of my lateral arms, and control arms would this also play a role with issues with the tire rubbing. I know the ultimate solution would be to reduce the rim size but in the Bahamas that might be harder to find.

This is the W220 Forum, so most of us won't be able to answer your question. You might find better answers in the W221 Forum.

We need more information to be of help---like rim width, tire make and size, some photos, etc. How much weight makes trouble, how often? Of course stiffer rear springs helps too. Fabricating new shock mounts to move the springs out of the way is also possible. Gotta show us where the springs are rubbing.
