I currently have the SPL front upper control arms.

With the way they are designed, they change the SAI angle and hence the scrub radius as you adjust the camber. As the SAI increases with the camber increase, and working with the caster, it creates more jacking of the car on the inside tire when the wheel is turned, effectively leaning the car away from corners. I tend to view this negatively. (although I do like the increased steering effort and feedback)

Does anyone have any thoughts on this or comparisons to other FUCA designs for the 370 in regards to this line of thought?
