Hi SubVerSiv
A couple of things to think about.
What do you intend to use the car for?
The Sigma arms I beleive are the same across both models and give you a lot of negative camber.
For the street I recommend 1-1.5 negative, anything more and as you have experienced, you end up wearing out the inside of the tyre.
The Sigma arms are good if the car is used for the track or for drifting.
Have you had the front aligned since adding the arms? If not, you may find that there is a lot of toe-out adding to the tyre wear problem and would be also creating the tyre noise.
Shorter or shortening the front struts will increase negative camber but only marginly and then raises issues about ride height, shocks and springs.
I suggest that you stick with the Sigma arms and use the strut tops to reduce the negative camber back to a street setting.
Once the wheels/steering is aligned, then you could use the camber tops to set camber for street and then track without effecting the alignment.
