if you have the ability to get them then I would recommend getting them. You may not need them for your purposes but it makes the unit more complete and if you ever go to sell them it makes it easier to sell.

you dont need the pillows , they offer no performance difference on the street, and i can not tell any difference except more very slight noise. and i would save your money and go up a notch to the flex system or something similiar.. much better adjustability... (i could not get the settings the way i wanted on the ss.)

they reduce bushing bind and allow a larger free travel range. They are not necessary unless you are racing the vehicle ON A ROAD COARSE
