    I've got a set. They seem good quality and are a lot more solid than the original bushes but I have yet to drive the car on the road yet so I can't comment on that aspect. If you get the wishbone bushes then check that they have made the planned modification to the metal rings as the ones they sent me were a couple of mm too wide and fouled the subframe.

    dog bone one deff makes a diff but you only need the big one as there's nothing of the small bush so its not worth changing,

    Poly bushes are good but i do find they tend to make for a slightly more noise and vibration than the o.e types.Saying that some companys do a range of fast road type bushes which are good option.

    My outer ARB ones made a big difference and you can tighten them or loosen to increase or decrease the overall effect.
