Adjustable. Setting them up is not hard and the adjustment is there if you ever need it.

The control arms pretty much adjust the axle in the center of the wheel wells so its just a simple measurement of the axle to make sure its centered.

To adjust the lcas, measure the distance from the center of the wheel to the edge of the wheel well on the rear wheels. The adjust the lcas to center the tire in the wheel well.
Adjusting the tq arm is easy too. Bmr has a great video on their site that shows you how to do it.

sorry for highjacking but is the bushing that comes with it one piece? byunspeed has your adjustable torque arms on sale for $230 and i was thinking of getting one, especially since it comes with the angle finder. i just bought a used umi relocation bracket for $100 and it says i need a one piece bushing.
