Ok so lowered 2.2 ctdi car on eibachs,put wheels 18s, completed 100 miles or so, then went for four wheel alignment.
Results = needs rear camber arms as many of you already highlighted.
Now has anyone purchased these recently? and from where? Do eibach produce these for the ctdi? and is the proper term adjustable rear camber arms?

Now the store Revolution performance in Gateshead (Newcastle) done the alignment quoted £174.99 - £234.99 fitted.
they said the part is shipped from america, and the fitted price includes the alignment...... your thoughts please?
 
The best ones I believe is Ingals and are indeed shipped from the USA
 
I think adjustable camber arms are necessary after lowering. My car is lowered with Eibach springs since early last year. The resulting negative camber wore the inner tread of the rear wheels. Because I had to change tyres anyway, I didnt want the same problem again so i installed cheap camber arms just a couple of months ago & had a local mechanic fit them for £40- then wheel alignment. I would say I noticed better roadholding than before as the wheels sit more upright. I've also just had a Comptech rear sway bar fitted, and the car is much more fun to drive. So yes, I would get adjustable arms for better handling & reduced tyre wear. I bought these on eBay & so far so good: http://item.mobileweb.ebay.co.uk/viewitem;PdsSession=66087e8f1370a5aa86373dd7fff9c3bb?itemId=380439778650&index=1&nav=SEARCH&nid=57023598544
