I would not use exposed spherical bearings on a year-round daily driver here in Maryland. Probably okay in SoCal, but I've never lived there.

Cusco LCAs use little rubber booties to protect the bearings so we commonly recommend them. I use them on my car because of snow/salt and I rallycross. Others options are lighter and/or have more adjustment, but you may have to replace the bearings more often.

With OEM rear LCAs at a 1 inch drop you'll be around -2.0 or more rear camber which is the right neighborhood. It is often uneven though as you've noticed.

SPC is a cheap rear LCA that uses a sealed rear bushing of some type.
