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.

Hmmm, to be clear, it would correct the issue where more weight in the rear makes the suspension sag. Of course it has limits, but is smarter than just shocks/springs. No idea on the larger rims.
