Some negative camber on that vehicle is normal. I recommend getting an alignment and the shop will be able to tell you if you are within factory specs or not.

Peter, I'm curious. I clicked the link to your auto parts place and, in the pull-down for "select vehicle", it doesn't list Mercedes?

Peter,

Now when I go to "Mercedes" and select "SLK320", then select "Year", it only goes to 2003. My SLK320 is a 2004.

Yes, I realize that. But others might not and I just wanted to point out the omission to Peter in case he thought it important enough to go in and change it.

My 01 SLK 320 front tires are wearing out on the inside, and it has a bumpy patterns on both tires, "Cupping" as I learn this terminology from the internet. The tires threat are still about 70% new and my front struts (Bilstein) are about 60k miles old. I'm so sick of the noise (I believe) coming from these tires. Can any one (please) help me diagnose the cause/s and possibly a fix to this. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks
