im the type of guy who ussually doesnt mind driving a racecar on the street..
but after having a solid rear with solid hiem joints on each end, I HATED IT..

But no it strait up sucks..
also a car a did a while back, urethane in the lower, alum. bushing in the housing, and hiem joints in the uppers, and it had a constant vibration at highway speeds....

^ This is a matter of opinion and certainly subjective, but generally correct.
My car is completely suspended by spherical (Heim) joints and is fine until I get to a rough road. At this point, it can rattle more than a little bit. This is a trade off for good handling, but these LCA's WILL introduce NVH into your ride. ANY good LCA that is aftermarket will also produce noice, but not necessarily as much. A tubular poly/poly one is going to be somewhat less, but also WORSE than stock in some ways. The spherical end allows better articulation of the rear axle and is a fundamental issue with the Mustang 4-link out back.
I personally recommend these UPR LCA's, but just be warned of the trade-off. There is NO WAY I can tell you what it is like, you need to find a car with these and go for a ride over ALL kinds of roads.

i took my sh!tty ebay control arms and chopped the urethane bushings off and tig'd on some threaded ends with 3/4 joints on the body side, steel plates on the axle side for the lowers and left the urethane bushings in for the uppers on the axle side and it wasn't that bad to drive it on the street. thats also with no rear interior so i imagine it would have been even less noticable with the seat/ sound deadening stuff installed.
