[QUOTE="Jipster, post: 151105, member: 97"] "it's too hard" Maybe, but its subjective. Some people will like a firmer, 'sharper' feeling car particularly if he's a keen driver. "crack often" I dont think this is true. PU unlike rubber (stock) does not deteriorate (like chubby pointed out - climate and road conditions are factors). PU bushes will likely outlast rubber/stock bushes and depending on the car, they will probably outlast that too LOL! "do not conform to strict udm qc & standards" Maybe true, but thats like saying Bilstein doesnt conform to UDM qc and standards. Buy a recognised brand and you should be ok. Otherwise I'd be afraid to use febi, bolo, lemforder etc. "Waste money" Probably. Stock bushes are pretty good and should last a long time and will do the job as well. As I said, this is one for the keen driver who wants more from his car. "More wear and tear beacuse PUs are fitted" Probably. Suspension systems need to work in unison. You may disturb the existing balance by going 'over' on one part without upgrading the rest. PUs are also not quick fixes. If handling is unbalanced, just changing PUs are not going to do it. Overall conclusion - like jules - "Im on superpro. have fun." [/QUOTE]
