If I need to get LCA’s I’m going to simply go with the SPL pro series, but I’m hoping I can get away with top plates and stock adjustment.
With 2” lowered, I got 1.7 deg camber, maxed out with stock mount/ LCA, while 2.6deg rear as minimum out of stock LCA all the way in. You need adjustable rear toe arms at this ride height to get zero toe, and bump steer spacer keeps the arm parallel to LCA.

Front bump steer rods made noticeable difference for me, steering wheel is more stable over rough surface with little kick backs, and it feels really smooth from turn-in through the corner, that may also come from zeroed out toe front and back.

For now I’d live with stock LCA and see how my tires wear for my driving, but if you lower the car beyond 0.5” (Euro M030 spec) then you probably be better served with adjustable toe arms, if not with bump steer feature.
