Default Front Camber Arm Question

I'm finally going to be putting my S-Techs on my Z very soon. I have the Ichiba Rear Toe Bolts and was considering getting front camber arms since it will help with tire wear. I've heard some people say that Ichiba make bad camber adjusters and that they break easily.

Could anyone with knowledge confirm this or deny it? Would it be better just to keep the OEM arms and eat the tire wear? What alternatives do I have besides Ichiba that are reasonably priced?

Muchos Thankos

Tire wear is not bad if the toe is properly set and you buy tires you can rotate. I use my camber arms to add extra camber after lowering, daily drive my car and get around 30k out of my front tires while running high front camber. Without arms your camber will be around -1.5 , perfectly acceptable IMO
