solid motor mounts

Its time for new motor mounts and I wanted to see if anyone uses solids and what they think about them. They seem a little hardcore for street use but I'm sure someones using them. Let me know what you think! Thanks

If you like vibrations go for it! I heard the polyurathane ones are bad on vibes just imagine solid! Yikes!! Seems like a strip car thing to do, not very streetable at all.

I have solid motor mounts, and poly trans mounts. The guy I bought the car from said he noticed the vibrations more when the poly trans mounts were put in, but were noticible w/ the solid motor mounts. I have been in friends cars whare they have a 10 inch sub and its around the same effect, but constant. Its not really noticible when driving, but in idle its there. But I moved from an 89 jeep and that ride wasnt exactly smooth either so im not really one judge about vibrations while moving. No one has really complained about it, girls joke about it, and I love it. But its really not that bad.

I just looked again and jegs has the same thing for the same price, but in the discription it makes it sound like this is just a solid pad but not the actual mount. Anyone care so shed some light on this? Thanks

It's a complete kit . On the drivers side it replaces the upper half that bolts to the block. On the passenger side it replaces the lower half that bolts to the k-memeber
