Yes, these are a good product. They do improve handling and traction, though they also make the ride a little bit harsher and slightly increase road noise.
Installation is a major pain.
In my opinion a better route to take would be aftermarket suspension parts which typically have this kind of bushing already installed. Not only is that a better option becasue you're upgrading the whole part, not just the bushing--but it will also end up being cheaper in the long run. The bushings by themselves are cheap, but installation is not. On the other hand, aftermarket parts like lower control arms and the panhard bar are very quick to swap out...so even though the parts cost more, you save the money back in install time.
