Disregard, just found this on the Rogue Engineering website:
"An Adjustable Rear Control Arm (ARCA) determines the rear wheels' camber settings. This is important on vehicles that are lowered or frequent the track. Whereas the factory arms are adjustable, they have limited range because of the eccentric cam bolt design. While lightweight in design, the "BBQ Tong" design of the factory arms cannot withstand the continual pounding of track and street driving forever."

So it appears that the real question is: how much negative camber do I want?
No the question is if youre dropping a ton how much negative camber DONT you want.

The rear of my car for instance is dropped of the adjustments, I don't know exactly how far but it's not slammed. My camber is maxed @ 2.5 I can't get less. but that's also exactly what I wanted.

Most street cars will only want 1-1.5 rear camber or maybe less for tire wear. That's probably going to be your biggest desire for these.
