Is it the springs or is it the struts? I have 18x8 ET25,on my 1993 300D and it is dropped 1.5' all around, I have a problem of rubbing when i hit a bump, what can i do to firm up the ride so the wheels do not come up as much on a bump??? The wheels stick out about .5 inches, i love the look, but i cant stand the fact that when i hit a bump, they rub on the fender...<br> <br> is there any easy solution for this???<br> <br> thanks in advance,<br> Mario

  5. Check Your Toe-in at Home to See if You Need an Alignment

    Tire, Wheel, Brake and Suspension Forum
    In my 2012 S65 I hit a big pothole and blew out my left front sidewall (sounded like an explosion from inside the car). I replaced the tire, and a couple thousand miles later I noticed significant wear on the inside edges of both front tires. I took it in to the dealer for an alignment and the...

  6. Front brake pads wear and tear question

    Tire, Wheel, Brake and Suspension Forum
    I bought an A-class automatic 10 months ago. Since then I have driven 22K km of which I’d say 85% of this was straight motorway and minimal breaking. I’ve just brought my car in for a service to the garage I bought it from and they told me that after 10 months, my brakes are worn to 90% with...
