You cannot adjust the OE arms. OE settings change camber and toe only, and are very limited. The only way to adjust while staying OE is to slot the arms at either end, giving you an oval hole to be able to move the arm a bit, but it's a janky way of doing it.

However, the main reason to adjust the traction arms is to dial out bumpsteer, depending on how your car is set up you may not need to adjust them at all.
