Adjustable Rear Lower Control Arm Recommendations?

I’m in need of adjustable control arms cause the stock camber adjustment isn’t enough. My car is lowered and my wheels are riding on the inner walls in the rears.

I’m looking for some good recommendations that don’t cause squeak or a harsh ride.

I've been running a set of cheap ebay arms for years with no concerns with noise or ride comfort. One of the keys to this is properly torqueing all the pivot bolts with the full weight of the car on the suspension.

My one complaint about the ebay arms is the inner jam nuts are a PITA to loosen and tighten, especially the left side.

I have been looking at adjustable control arms for the rear of my E36 M3, and have seen these as a good compromise between price and quality.

The price is for a pair, and they come with poly bushings for the subframe mounts. They will not increase NVH for a street driven car.
