I disagree with that to a certain extent. The top mounts are used to obtain geometry settings outside the limits of what would be possible with standard none adjustable items

Can you adjust camber on those coilovers?

On my avo's the upper hole that attaches to the upright is oversized so you can set the camber you want then tighten the bolts. Camber bolts on these would have been a waste of time.

The eccentric top mounts i have fitted are primarily to increase my castor for handling purposes.

I've got them they are pretty harsh on the road though compared to the OE rubber ones.

What front suspension set up do you have?

Usually for adjusting camber and/or caster. If you won't be adjusting them, they will be a waste of money
