Default CRX Bushings

Who makes the most street friend daily driver bushing kit? I've heard the full ES kit can get pretty rough on the streets.

<<Yes I searched, there's nothing about bushing comparisons that I could find, only about Energy Suspension.>>

Honda.

any after-market kit that improves handling will give you a harsher ride than stock. IMO poly bushings (any manufacture) are fine on the street.

Same here I went with the ES kit since I heard that it wasnt as harsh as the prothane ones, as for the rear trailing arm bushings I went with Mugen bushings which were suppose to be a bit firmer than OEM.

While poly might ride fine for the street, when you talk about "street friendly" I also assume "low maintenance." I'm curious to see how poly holds up to 150K miles compared to OEM.

good point

Thanks for the input, I think I'll go either OEM or Mugen on this one.
