These things are brand new, never installed and are for a w211 E55. You can adjust the camber for a greater contact patch which improves your heavy accleration and also tire life.

I paid $625 and lead time is three weeks for them to be made. I can do $595 shipped.

I think I need something like this since my car is lowered. So not happy about my tires right now which just a few days ago before I left town I noticed. They have pretty good tread still but the very inside edge the threads are coming out. What sucks is they are Pilot Super Sports so they aren't cheap and there is a good bit of tread left like I said, but now they are junk due to the threads. The fronts look fine but the rear needs something done to I guess adjust the camber, assume it is that and not castor.

Like mentioned, how come you decided not to install these Craig?

The slicks I bought in 28" sizing has more than enough bite to get the job done at the track. These little suckers are simply not needed anymore.

There is no such thing as caster on a rear axle.... You are probably thinking of toe.

A lot of old threads on tire wear seem to indicate that excessive toe change (due to the deflection of the stock toe link bushings) is probably more responsible for tire wear than a bit of extra negative camber.
