Question Uneven tire ware.

Gilly and other ML owners,

I have a 2000 ML 320. It has about 15,000 miles on it.

I notice the other day that there is more ware on the outer side on the tires. This is happening on all four tires. The difference is ware thickness between the most inner side and the most outer side of the tires is not that big less that 1/8", but very noticiable by visual inspection. And also inaddition to the outside edge of the tire having more ware, the outside edge has a slight wave patten.

History on this vehical. At about 5,000 miles. I complain about the vehical pullin to the right (very slight can't really tell it is there and you would wounder if it is cause by the road tilted to the right for drainage). Brought it into the dealer twice they rotated the tires and said they aligned my vehical. But I don't think it got any better.

I want to know

1. Is this normal?

2. Has anyone else have this problem? Could you good folks out there check on your ML. You may need to use a ruler.

3. Is the ML 4 wheel alignable?

thanks

blau
