When you are looking for that last extra edge in suspension control. Poly bushings. For a true daily driver, I wouldn't bother.

My car is all Poly. Every suspension bushing, engine mounts, transmission mount and crossmember. It's solid and rides like a skateboard. I daily drive my car and every time my coffee splashes out of my cup I wish I had the stock rubbers to put back in.
