Default Let'* talk Lateral Arms

As some of you may know, I'm looking to get very good balance of speed as well as handling with my GTP. In stock form it handled very well, and with my strut tower bar, front/rear sway bars, tubular trailing arms, and GR-2 struts, it handles extremely well.

I was looking at the another suspension component that could be a possible upgrade ... the lateral arms.

There are some adjustable ones on 3800 Performance. For you suspension guru'*, what exactly are these going to do for me in the corners? Would it be worth it? Why are they adjustable?

I'm just curious, because I am keeping the stock springs, so this mod would be next in line.

Do you have a picture of their location? They effect castor it says, which is shown here. So it does modify your wheel path.
