Craigbelont Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 I just purchased a Mercedes C-Class. I have been driving and observed that my automobile is really rigid and jarring over the city's potholes. Conversely, the roadway is far smoother and more pleasant. I observed that the vehicle tends to slide to the left at the rear end at high speeds (70 mph) over minor bumps. What actions can I do to enhance my riding experience? I own 19-inch alloy wheels. It has been suggested that lowering tire pressure and selecting certain tyres might enhance comfort. What do you believe is causing the automobile to veer significantly to one side while in motion? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt865 Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 Worn shock absorbers would result in this issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WordSmith Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 Tyre pressures may assist, along with the brand and type of tyre, but cannot offset the disadvantages of 19-inch wheels and low-profile tyres. It is unclear if this is a new vehicle to you or whether you have driven it for 70,000 miles; nonetheless, the presence of a 'sports suspension' will determine the ride quality. I own 19-inch wheels on my E-Class Coupe, which is a compromise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keithmerc220 Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 Your vehicle is equipped with a firmer suspension and low-profile tires mounted on 19-inch wheels. Both contribute to the poor ride quality, among other factors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
