Never heard of any aftermarket strut mounts...stock ones do just fine.
Don't see how bad camber could damage a car...just have uneven tire wear.

I hear that the tein coilovers dont have the top pillow ball mounts like the JICs. So far people have been using the stock mounts with upgraded mounts by KYB or redesigned urathane toyota mounts.
