I have battle version camber arms. I bought them from a member here but never used because my tire wear doesn't seem that bad. Pm me if you want details.

the Eibach kit is your best value - same as SPC (SPC makes both), inexpensive, dead on reliable, and will allow you to adjust both camber and toe properly

I am running SPC arms with no issues so far (only 100 miles tops since install).

If money wasn't an issue, I would definitely go with the SPL arms. Unfortunately, at the time I didn't have the foresight to justify the extra $100 for the arms and toe bolts. I don't know the weight of these pieces, but they look like they would be lighter than the competition. Remember these are unsprung members, so the lighter the better. Plus the new hybrid adjuster looks pretty trick.

the Eibach set is sold as a set of camber arm/toe bolt. As you change camber, you change toe, which is why both are essential

Got Eibach/SBC Camber Arm and Toe Bolt kit from Adam at Z1. It feels so good not to waste money on tires now. Thanks!

SPC/Eibach ---> Same kit. Cheap and works. This is all you need.

SPL ---> Baller ****. Nice stuff, but overkill for 90% of the peoples.

Has anyone tried the ichiba kit? I like the red color, it matches my GF210 springs. It also comes with the toe bolts.

Thanks, Seems the cheapest also. I have seen someone upload the template on here some where.

I guess I am going with the ichiba kit.

the Ichiba kit is not the same as the Eibach/SPC kit - bushings are different - but more importantly, it only adjusts +/- 2 degress for camber. Checking on toe adjustment

edit - +/- 3 degrees for toe

IMHO, the Eibach is still the better buy...not much more $, more adjustment, but we can get either one if anyone wants
