I put my BMR relocation brackets on the bottom hole. They will help a little with wheelhop and traction

Bottom hole for launch traction.

Having your lower control arm to low can be just as bad as having it to high. Where you want the rear of your lower control arm is all relevant to ride height and what works for one person may not work for the other. This is were multiple hole relocation brackets come into play.

I would say you don't need them then since their job is to correct the angle of the lower control arms which gets altered when you change the ride height.

It seems like you can only benefit from having them

That's not really true. The wrong control arm angle is bad for the car. Running relocation brackets at stock height is gonna throw your angles out.
