2010 E63 front camber adjustment - Anyone??
Has anyone had any luck or experience adjusting front camber on a 2010-2011 E63. It is different than all w211 and all other w212's. I have searched this forum and cant find anything specific to this. The control arms everyone raves about are for 2012-ups and the adjustable bolts are for 09 and older. It seems like there is no adjustment possible unless i do something totally custom. I have negative camber on the right front that is so bad its noticable to the naked eye not just the alignment machine. I have already tried a new strut with no change.

Not lowered. Does not appear to have any accident damage. All components look Same age/condition.
Was the original struts. I changed this one on the right today for this issue and there was no change good or bad.

IF all checks out OK then search K-mac which is one company providing CAMBER ADJUSTMENT bushings and other parts.
" " - K-MAC Camber Caster Strut & Bushings Worlds Largest Range (k-mac-camber-kits.com)
There are other companies making stuff to allow you to adjust camber etc.
Supposedly MB and others did away with Camber adjustment- Sucks as you can get a leaner like yours and it will eat tires like crazy.
I bought set for the rear of my W212 sedan.

How you tighten the two strut bolts affects camber significantly. If you use a jack to lift the control arm to the shock, you'll get a lot of negative camber.
If instead, you let the control arm hang naturally and then tighten it you'll get a more neutral camber.
In my opinion coming your car definitely looks lowered
I've used the kmac bushings on my 211, they work great and allowed plenty of adjustment.
I have set of Kmac for sale for a 212 that include the control arms

Yes did not have ones eye on the ball !!
Can see need to chime in with ‘richvegas’ frustration of a prestigious make - and a AMG performance model at that yet….
No adjustability for day to day commuting to compensate for curb knocks. Excess passenger side wear through high cambered roads. Extra passenger loads or lowering, Wide profile tires Performance handling or Track days.
ONUS NOW BACK ON OWNERS TO FUND COSTLY, PREMATURE TIRE REPLACEMENT.
TO RESOLVE - WE HAVE SPECIALLY DESIGNED BOTH FRONT AND REAR - adjuster kits to be “BOLT-ON” - No special tools or need for time consuming control arm removal.
WITH THE K-MAC PATENTED DESIGN ADJUSTMENT SYSTEM allowing easy access, precise single wrench (and ultimate adjustment - direct on alignment rack UNDER LOAD).
ALSO PRICED RIGHT - Front Camber (only) kit $345 (Both Sides) - less then cost of 1 quality tire.
