As an experienced Mercedes guy, never mess with the suspension of these cars unless tracking! Leave great alone! The car is awesome and a lot of money goes into r&d to make these cars feel the way they do

Cracked and or bent wheels occur with the factory wheels both 19s and 20s forged or cast. The camber wear issue is from lowering it for sure. Depending on what kind of tires you have the factory setup you get 8k to 20kish miles on the rear. The sport/performance tires will be on the lower side of course and the less performance oriented tires will have more life of course.

So with the S 65 when the magic ride activates, it actually puts more pressure down on the wheel and if it sees a pothole, it will put more pressure down and thus will definitely crack a wheel on such low profile rims. If you put it in Sport it will be even worse.
@Primate2010 6 ай бұрын
This is a great car! I’ve got an SL63 which also has ABC; I wouldn’t let anyone touch my wheels except my local Mercedes specialist - you need the wheels and ABC setup properly! Not only will you be making the tyres wear badly, you’ll be making the ABC work harder if everything isn’t aligned and setup properly.

You may need some adjustable control arms and/or other suspension components to properly get that alignment in spec. I lowered my 370Z and had to install adjustable lower control arms and toe bolts to get the alignment right. The stock components don’t have enough adjustability to account for the geometry change when dropped

@@gasolara2002 of course, but smaller wheels equals higher profile tires, which means less force being transferred to the wheels and less chance of the actual wheel hitting the ground when you hit a pot hole, therefore less chance to damage a wheel.

I’m in Columbus Ohio running a similar setup on my VW Phaeton. 22x9 and 22x10.5. Just went thru similar problem with my lexani tires as well. I had 255/30-22 and 305/25-22 and the front inside tires wore out quickly. I put the proper size tires on being a 265/30-22 and a 315/25-22. Almost the exact same circumference which is needed for my all wheel drive system. I highly recommend these size tires!

You need adjustable rear control arms for the CL/S Coupe models when lowered. You will have the wear problem until you get the adjustable arms to officially get rid of the extra tire wearing camber. At stock height and configuration, the rear tires don't really last long either. Between 8k miles to 25k miles. You are doing the financially smart thing and sticking with the cheaper all season tire until you dial in the alignment the best you can.

Any smart person would know to get wheel alignment after you mess with the suspension. After I put lowering springs on my SUV, it went right to the dealership for an alignment. I even aligned my cars when switching out between aftermarket and OEM wheels for the change in seasons..
