Default Anyone have poly isolators

looking at finally getting my c springs soon, and am looking at some poly isos. are they worth the extra 40 for stiffening up the car a bit?

I think you're going to notice a considerable change in handling with just the drop....

I wouldn't spend the extra money on the poly iso's. If you lower it and still want it to be stiffer then I would get them.

You could also look into upgrading your sub frame connectors, I don't know a whole lot about how sturdy the stock vert connectors are, but I remember reading that they are weak.

Or you could go a little bit deeper with some beefy roll bars.

There will be a ride difference BUT I wasn't able to tell the difference. 40 bucks is a good price, just get them.

I put them on when i lowered my car. I could tell a handling difference but i think it was all from the springs.

I think it's more about the road vibration/resonance more than anything. The amount of flex between rubber and polyurethane wouldn't be that noticeable without doing some heavy track time.
