You don't believe them?

No and it has nothing to so with the parts guy on the phone, it has everything to do with the physical design of a loaded in shear bolt. It's a structurally inferior design to a loaded in compression design like the SPL's. Having seen SPC's snap at the track and causing thousands of dollars worth of damage to a car, I would not run a front camber arm from any mfgr with that physical design period. Even if +30 dollars says they are AOK.
Edit: Although looking at the pics above, it does look like that is loaded in compression, is the "track" upgrade a different attachment to the spindle? If so then I would definitely consider them. And if so they they really should show both pics in their ad.
