Will you get a much better setup on LCAs vs camber plates? Yes

Ask any pro setup shop that regularly puts cars on the podium and they will say "get the LCAs. Period.". Camber plates are a low cost alternative with partial results. Better than nothing but a significant compromise in setup.

255 square works fine on a 986 running OEM 8.5" wheels all around. AX veteran Carl V. Ran his 285 square with rolled fenders and careful attention to wheel offset. I think that was too much tire but... Carl is very quick.

I am not a fan of poly bushings on these cars. Stock fresh rubber works fine. If you are regularly losing alignment something is loose. Look around before it falls off. My front suspension loosened from my sub frame once and tire wear got ugly quick.
If you want to go cheap -- and a bit one the chumpy side of things, you can go camber plates and redrilling the location of the mounting points.

Various opinions, but if you aren't going to be really adjusting those LCA's and just looking for a bit more camber -- this maybe an interim solution.
