On the Megan website, the model with pillow ball mounts and something called a camber plate are described as providing camber adjustability.

The 95 SC I had also had camber issues when I lowered it on springs. I changed to Tein CS and the car was able to be aligned to factory specs. As proof I got 3 years of use from 1 set of tires without rotating them. That was approximately 30K miles. I'll take that any day for a lowered car.
Not disagreeing with you and I will research more but I'm probably gonna give it a whirl.
