If you have the money, get the 350evo A-arms. If you don't, get the Cusco arms.
I originally bought the Kinetix arms and took them off because I didn't like the play in the upright.

What does their package come with?
I know it gives the A-arms in the front, but what does it include in the rear?
Toe arms and camber arms or just camber arms?

Toe arms are a myth... you can't correctly adjust toe with the "toe arm" they sell.
SPC offers a camber cam bolt that can correctly correct toe on lowered cars.
The 350Evo package comes with front camber adjustable A arms with spherical bearings.
Rear traction arm w/spherical bushings, and camber arms w/shperical bushings.
The spherical bushings are what makes the 350Evo kit costly.
If you want you can just buy the 350Evo A arms, and then use SPC rear camber arms, and cam bolts with urethane bearings to save some dinero.

Well I didn't really want to spend 800 for control arms. How are the cusco arms hold up. The car is a daily driver so I don't need to go to crazy, just want to not eat up my tires.

i just bought the cusco front and the spc rear camber/toe bolt combination for my car which is a daily driver. I dont plan on lowering it any more the the eibach springs/tokico shocks will lower it and ill be running 8.5f/9.5r x 19 volk gt-av's..which are all enrounte to my house..while im over here in the desert..lol..With all of the talking on the forum the spc rear camber arms and toe bolt is the best way to go. do a search for spc toe, or camber arms, control arms and you will find all kind of useful info

do the cusco arms have enough adjustment to get back in spec w/ ~ 0.8 inch drop in front. does only adjust camber or does it adjust toe as well?
toe is adjusted at the tie rod ends.....dont need to buy anything else to adjust that
with that drop, you would not even need to likely adjust camber, unless it is out from side to side, which is very common with aftermarket springs (since the drop is rarely exactly the same from one side to the other, resulting in different camber)

I have been waiting a long time to get components for front camber adjustment and just installed the Cusco's. SPC toe bolts go in this weekend then we'll see what kind of alignment numbers I can get.
Evo's make really nice stuff and offer more adjustability then the other brands but the best bang for the buck, especially for a daily driver, are the Cuscos at least for the front. For the rear just about anybody's camber rods will do but use the SPC bolts for toe.
