R129 SL-Class (1989-2002)

Tire alignment shop- SW Florida

Adrian, I can't help you with your location as I'm near Augusta Georgia. However, I would expect that a shop that works on European cars will be fine. I generally do my own alignments (yes, you can do this at home with a few tools) but with stock parts these cars do not have a lot of camber alignment available. I think the typical error is to attempt to change the camber setting with the weight on the suspension. Since most of the camber alignment is done with the lower control arm, the wheel is moved sideways when adjusting camber and this is really hard when the car is on the ground, and on some cars you can break things if you try this.

Have relocated my R129 to Naples Florida and asking for recommendation for a tire shop who understands how to do wheel alignment on our classics!


All/ any suggestions appreciated
