What kind of Tein coilovers did you get? The rear mounts are just a spherical bearings without any adjustability. $180 shipped is a pretty crappy price, especially if they're used. MVPMotorsports (sponsor, look left) has 'em for $150, brand new.

i'm not sure whta you are saying but you do not need rear adjustable mounts. Camber is controled by the Upper control arm in the rear.

I THINK HE BOUGHT MOOKEEH MK1'S..... THE TEIN REAR NON-ADJUSTABLE PILLOW BALLS WILL INCREASE SUSPENSION RESPONSE AND LIFE..... BUT THE RIDE WILL BE HARSHER.
