Who has the BMR poly/rubber LCA's???

Does anyone here have the BMR poly/rubber LCA's? How is the ride comfort compared to poly/poly LCA's? Do the poly/rubber comprimise any traction at the track when compared to poly/poly? I was thinking of getting a set to soften up the ride a little. It's a little bumpy over the rougher roads in my area with the SFC, poly/poly LCA, Hotchkis PHR. and Bilstein shocks.

I have them. They feel fine.

Just get some rubber bushings and slap them in instead of buying new LCA's.

I don't think you'll notice much difference. Get some adjustable shocks.

I have the rubber/poly bmr lca's. I haven't owned the poly/poly lca's, so I cannot compare them.. I can say that I do not find the rubber/poly to be harsh.

Poly/poly is not just a ride comfort issue, they cause the suspension to bind during cornering, comprimising cornering performance. The rubber will not bind.

Same here. I've had them on for a few years now and I'm real happy with them.

BMR sells the rubber bushings for aftermarket lca's. Don't bother buying new lca's for this.
