Posted this in W212 without much luck... But since this is more of a general question, was wondering if anyone that knows about tire tread readings could help me out.

I have aftermarket 19's on my ride lowered with H&R Springs. Never got around to doing an alignment / camber adjustment...

So got my car back after Service A and it seems that they did a tire tread reading on my tires...

Left Front (Outside/Center/Inside) 6.5/7.7/5.7
Right Front 6.4/6.9/4.7
Left Rear 5.8/6.3/6.2
Right Rear 6.2/5.8/5.5

Seems that the insides are wearing a bit more than the outsides.

Should I get an alignment/camber adjustment done or is this just a minor difference that won't affect tire wear much? Other thoughts would be appreciated...

Hard to get perfectly even tire wear when lowered. In your case, tire wear is less than 1 mm throughout except your front right, which is not a huge problem. Getting an alignment will definitely help.

I know on my E63 if I have the car in one of the more aggressive sport settings, it will create negative camber and you will find more wear on the insides. On my NSX, setting the camber was a manual process, but with the MB, it is programmed.
There are ways to work around it and I noticed it was discussed in length on an earlier thread, so it seems to be an important issue.
