Default Battle Version Upper Control Arms

Has anyone tried these for their sc300? The fronts go for $600 and the rears are $650. They are suppose to help with adjusting camber.

As of right now my camber is pretty bad but drives fine and since I usually only drive my car during the weekends my tire wear isn't too bad. But I figure sooner or later I'm going to have to get the camber corrected. Was just wondering if these were worth it.

Although people talk highly of battle version parts, that sounds almost like it's getting into Ikeya Formula price ranges... (depending on the conversion rate)

What is your current suspension setup?

I'm considering battle version control arms as of right now. I have their rods and links on my car currently and I really like them .

I was considering Ikeya for all of my suspension arms, rods, and links. I understand you have to pay to play, but I didn't want to pay the Japan tax.
