I can't see any significant difference between shimmed or threaded types of LCA's. Shims come in varying thickness and often require more than one to achieve the desired camber. Also, the shims are somewhat expensive and can be easily lost in a tool box. It is hard to tell but I wonder if the threaded type might be vulnerable to dirt/muck getting onto the exposed portion of the thread and might be hard to adjust after a few years. Pick your poison.

Yes, lower the car and you'll need new adj rear toe links. Most folks do not use rear adj LCA's.
