polybushes
#8
Bear in mind that polyurethane is cheaper than good quality rubber, OEMs would use it if it were as durable, and gave favourable characteristics. Absolutely minimal compliance in suspension components designed to be compliant by using a stiff material that doesn't flex very well is not necessarily ideal just because subjectively it feels good.

Good quality bushes like vibratechnics are expensive because they are good. Cheap polybushes are cheap because they're made of sub-optimal, cheap materials. Whether or not you like or dislike them personally, rubber is a superior material for bushes if it is good quality rubber with the desired characteristics.

With suspension components you get what you pay for.
