Description: Madness BMW Mini Cooper S polyurethane rear suspension bushings replace the soft foam rubber bushings atop the rear struts. These Polyurethane Rear Suspension Bushings help keep your Mini Cooper S on track by striking a balance between comfort and performance. The high performance polyurethane used to make these Mini Cooper S bushings arrest suspension play. This reduces that loose feel that can diminish the other improvements you have made to your suspension.



By replacing these bushings you tighten the rear suspension and limit the movement caused by hard cornering with soft factory bushings. More control as well as better feel is transmitted to the driver by limiting the lateral strut movement.



If you've already upgraded the rest of your suspension then you have wasted your money not having these polyurethane rear suspension bushings. Precision machined to exacting tolerances, this rear suspension bushing has NO play!

Pros: Tightens up rear suspension slightly
Cons: Creates more plastic-rattles on rough pavement

I have the M-M rear trailing arm bushings, and really like the improvement they provide in rear suspension for vigorous driving.

These strut-top bushings, by contrast, I judge to be suitable mainly for track use.

For me, on our local rough pavement, the additional plastic noises outweigh the tighter suspension, even for vigorous driving on hairpin mountain roads.

Your priorities may differ - in my priorities, less noise is important, and these are not as effective as the trailing-arm bushings.
