Has anybody had any experience or any need to have their camber adjusted? Or another question would be if anyone else has any problem with their S-Class eating up the rear tires. Mine get worn on the inner treads. It can be so hard to see it the wear in this location, that I recently had an inner side wall blow out. Basically, they are tilted / \ from a rear view perspective, (like on many old BMW 735's, for example), although you can't see it with the naked eye. Everything looks fine, until it's time to take the tires off, then the wear tells the story. BTW, I had a full alignment performed already, so it can only per the camber now. Front tires wear fine. Just looking for perspective. Thanks.

Hmmmnnnn... I need to really dig out the receipt and nail it down, but man, it has to be 6 - 7 months on the rears. 18 incher HR rated tires. Performance touring tires. In between sport rated and pure touring rated.
Wow . . . only 7-8 months! Tires could start getting pretty expensive [xx(]
We just have regular stock rims and have been driving about 8 months on the new Continental ContiExtreme Contacts. I will check them out on the weekend when I go home for wear . . .
Carfax shows never wrecked, so did pre-purchase independant inspection, no word ever from the alignemnt shop, and just from my own eye, everything looks all original and evenly aged to me. I TRUELY don't think this car has ever been hit. Good call though.

Do you guys have 4x4 wheel laser alignment shops- they use it for audi - scoobys and porkys.. checks all four wheels at same time.. recently did mine.. if you can find one will tell you what is wrong for sure ..
