I have a 1995 C280, which has a AMG conversion, which includes a modified exhaust and a lowered sport's suspension. The car rides on 225 / 45 / 17 rubber, however have been for a while now battling to get the alignment spec's set right for this vehicle. The inside of the rear tyres are wearing at a higher rate than the rest of the tyres, and after 30 000 km, where the rest of the tyre has 2mm of tread, the inside is virtually smooth. I have tried many specialist alignment workshops, but they do mnot seem to have the correct specs. Looks like the rear camber needs adjustment - or is this just a characteristic of the suspension set up, and exagerated by the fact that it has 17" tyres?

This is always the case when you have wider tyres and lower suspension,you will find the rear tyres always wear on the inside....
