AW: Re: [W126 Coupe] Rear camber

[mbcoupes@mbcoupes.com]

my car was lowed by Lorinser while new and is REALLY low.  It runs 235/45=

R17's in the summer and believe me they take a beating on the inside edge=

 With the winter pizza cutters 15's you don't see it that bad.. but the
wide tires you see the outer edge is off the road and inner edge is bald.=

Rusty's site has pi

then, the 45 degree angle that the trailing arm has with the line of the
camber adjustment needed means you won't get even that small amount of
