I've heard that you can achieve front negative camber with adjustable top mounts, never seen them anywhere though....
Can't I just adjust camber on the coilovers themselves?

if the car is lower you will have negative camber anyway.
there is a few taiwan company will do 206 camber and caster adjustable top mount.
tein and ast do camber adjustable top mount.
PS do -2 degree front pivot.
most adjustable top mount will give you no more than -3 degree camber. if you want eurolook they are not for you.

My coilovers are all the way down and helpers out and there is camber trust me because my tyres are bald on the insides and fine on the outsides :/ maybe just due to it being so low and so much stress on the suspension so its all a bit bowed? lol

I just want my wheels in the arches, I have 16" Nimrods and they look to be too wide for when I slam the car, I don't wanna buy coilys and then can't lower enough.
The back is fine they sit further in than the fronts.
Would rolling the arches help much for the front?

I have seen spacers for sale that are designed to achieve camber but I'm not sure how good they are

Not laughing at you personally.
But how is that possible. The spacers could be angled, but once the wheel has made half a rotation... Bit wobbly don't you think?

Thinking about it more, the wheels would have to be machined as well as the hubs.
