Default Polyurethane bushing thread

After spending a lot of time reading and searching, I still find myself undecided on which brand and where to get them the cheapest.

I hope that the members can give some feedback with their experiences with some poly bushings. example; what brand, impression and finally where bought and how much?

Are poly bushings not worth it for a daily driver with some autox/track use? How is the road noise/road feel? will it put undue stress on other components/bolts? I always felt the rear was sloppy in my ti and found a broken spring and worn out bushings. And now with the added power and coilovers I just want to get the "best bang for my buck" lol.

Here are some options I found for street use;

1) Powerflex rear subframe from bimmerworld. $120 shipped

2) Powerflex rear subframe from powerflex site. $162 shipped
http://store.powerflexusa.com/bmw-e3...hings-p26.aspx


3) AKG rear subframe from AKG site. $112 shipped
http://www.akgmotorsport.com/catalog...ion%2FBushings


4) IE rear subframe from IE site. $100 plus shipping
http://store.nexternal.com/ireland/r...pair-p545.aspx



I know I only posted rear subframe bushings, but any info on any bushing will be helpful. Thanks!!
