BMR brackets and Spohn LCA's

i'm getting ready to finally order a set of lca's and i want to go with spohn. i have BMR brackets right now with stock arms. however the set of holes on these brackets are not lined up in an arc like i've seen with other brackets. meaning that i can't use the last hole cuz the arm is too short. if i go with spohn non-adjustable arms, would i be able to get them to line up with the bottom hole or do i need adjustable arms for this??

here is a pic of the brackets.

Strange? I have BMR bolt-on brackets (also welded) and my holes do have the arch. you will definately need Adjustable LCA's to lengthen for the bottom hole. I had to actually shorten my LCA length with my BMR brackets and lowered ride height(I had to rotate the pinion angle up because of the lowered stance and that rotated the axle towards the rear of the car. Adjustable LCA's allowed me to correct that. Here's an older pic I have that shows my bolt hole pattern well.

yep i dont know why mine are different hole pattern. i should be able to use the stock arms with all the holes, but for the bottom ones they're too short. i didn't wanna mess with adjusting anything but looks like i'll have to now.

i would leave the arms in the hole they're in now but if i lower it some more i should be able to get a little bit of added traction.
