But....an ITR rear sway bar would get you more benefit and they cost about the same.
FWIW, I feel like the mods that made a big difference on my ITR as far as neutralizing the understeer was a front camber kit and wider front tires. 225/45/15 and about -3.5° camber. Then again, I was using these with a 23mm rear bar and stiffer springs in the rear vs the front. At that point, the car lapped about as fast or a little faster than my GF's stock AP2. So...pretty fu#&ing fast for a bolt on, street suspension ITR.

I could see that there would be some relation change since you can adjust past the stock maximum toe angle for a given trailing arm camber angle....
The adjustable arms are easier to adjust since it's a turn buckle.

Edit....you're right. It would change toe curve since the travel radius is longer. I drew 2 circles of different radii on a horizontal line. Duh. Just woke up, apparently. Mybad.
Longer arms means less toe curve/change for given travel since the arc is longer or "straighter".

The other issue with those adjustable toe links is that one side might not need as much adjustment as the other. So now youre in a situation where the left and right side have totally different toe curves.
Toe links are best left to oem parts I think

I had a situation where I had to drill out all of the bolts on my rear trailing arms and messed my OEM toe arms up BAD. But I bought a pair of wicked arms and they are amazing. Also have the rear wicked camber arms as well fantastic quality, I bought both off amazon for a great price. If you’re going for the bling factor don’t do it but if yours is jacked up link mine was go I would recommend these for sure.
