You'll notice a lot of strut based motorsports-level cars including the STI Nurburgring racecar I crawled all over and under has (roughly) center fixed location top mounts and got it's camber at the lower mount. Some of it is application dependent.

Still can't go nuts with wheel offset and spacers, but for less than -2 degrees of negative camber and a 10mm spacer it's not going to make toooo much of a difference either way.

If that's the case, would group N top mounts work with an adjustable front lower control arms? Could you get as much as -3.5 - 4 camber with SPL's?
