ananybody running megan front camber arms?
camber wear is a slow wear anyhow so you will still get some life out of them and another option is in 15-20k miles flip them on the rims by swapping tho out side left for the inside right etc etc

Well i just purchased my own set of these megan uca's in an attempt to fix my alignment issues.
The inner edge of my tires wear out really fast and the alignment shop said my camber adjustment was already maxed out with the eom adjuster.

Has anyone else been having good luck after installing these?

i installed my new megan upper control arms saturday and i'm happy with them so far but i will see how the alignment goes here in a few days.
I had to pull my strut assembly out in order to get the bolts out of the uca but that was expected since my lowering springs are so close together but overall everything was easy.
when i pulled my oem uca out i realized that my upper ball joint was trashed and extremely loose so i needed these more than i thought, also the small vibration that the car had before is completely gone so i guess after i've finally changed almost every bushing in the front end its pretty solid now.

Wish our cars had OEM Castor adjustment 
, but my tire wear Is great with -5.5* camber all around, they dialed in my toe and camber as best they could, and I'm super stoked the car finally drives straight, even when I first bought it it never drove straight
UCAs look great!! And nice brakes

Anyway the way it is now there are no clearance issues at all.
Hopefully I answered your question but if I can help more let me know.

I attempted to remove the bolts from the uca with the strut assembly still in place but the bolts just would not fit through the spring at all and since pulling the strut out only took me a few minutes anyway it was easier to me than to fight with it
