Default Rear Adj Toe Arms? Will IS or SC arms work?

I'm having a helluva time finding adjustable arms that are within a budget. If i keep the coilovers I'm on, im planning to get some adjustable toe arms versus killing tires every month. The car will have spc rear camber eccentrics as well.

Has anyone used the megan arms for either the IS or the SC ones on the 2gs??

Spend the extra $50. And get the figs ones that's what I did. Or if you are set on megans, use the IS300 ones GL

Yeah, I got the FIGS instead of Megan, seemed like a little bit more well designed unit.

The rod ends werent the greatest, although I got the ECONO version. They worked great though and got my toe in perfect spec.

I've had the top speed adjustable toe rods -- before they became megan. I've had these since 2009 without any issues what so ever.

Spend the extra money on figs if you prefer.

I appreciate the input guys...and figured the figs arms would take the cake, just cant seem to find them on the site...

I'm not dead set on the Megans, just have had good experiences with them in the past

My front and rear camber are within the -1.5 to -2.2 degrees settings after getting aligned. The tech was able to get the toe setting in the green but they were not close to zero. I'm still on stock arms.

Would installing adj. rear figs arms bringing the toe back to zero help with tire wear? Planning on raising the front coils and putting on an 18mm RCA to help the front get back into spec.
