I went with the poly/rubber combo. I'm not sure if that's better though.

did you install them yet? not sure if they're better than what?
just wondering. I already ordered a pair with poly/poly. the main reason that put me off from the rubber/poly was its not clear how soft or hard the rubber end is on those. if its as soft as what i have now, i doubt i'll feel a difference.

Depends on what results you want.
If it's mainly for drag racing, poly/poly will be ok, as long as you aren't expecting to corner hard on the street. The stock rubber is soft enough that it lets the rear move back and forth, oscillating and causing wheel hop. The poly takes away any front and rear movement. But it also binds up when the rear tries to tilt a little when cornering.
Poly/rubber will let the rear tilt a little in the corners without binding. And it still takes out most of the front and rear movement, which eliminates most of the wheel hop, from what I've read on here anyway. The poly end gets rid of half of the movement, and the rubber end is harder than stock and eliminates most of the other half of the movement.
I did a lot of searching/re-reading over the past couple of days on lca's. I ended up ordering the 1LE rubber/rubber because I want to drag and autocross. Even the 1LE all-rubber is supposed to eliminate most of the wheel hop.
The 1LEs arent pretty, but the flex is in the bushings, and the stiffer 1LE bushings should do the trick [img]smile.gif[/img]
The BMRs look nice though, and are fantastic for drag racing - they will harm handling a bit though and can bind up in cornering situations acting like a big rear swaybar. I would stick with poly/rubber if I was going to do anything BMR.
