Probably easier to fit, but not sure how suitable they would be.
I'm in Greece until next week and don't have eLEARN with me, but I reall reading that the original glycol filled hydraulic bushes are designed to alter the rear tracking when cornering. I doubt these aftermarket polyurethane ones would be able to do that, so could affect rear wheel road holding and perhaps increase rear tyre wear.
Wonder how much long term testing the manufacturer carried out with them fitted to a Stilo.

My thoughts exactly.Be interesting to read that. I guess the movement in the bushes would allow some pitch, roll and yaw between the chassis and the rear beam.
I'd wager though than in practical terms the average drive would never notice any difference in handling. But then, arguably, why are you fitting polybushes in the first place if that's the case.....
Has everyone missed the front bushes also listed?
Nothing to offer other than what i read on alfaforum where some of the tuners have co developed some of the kits for the alfa guys.
Theyve gone through quite a bit of developing and testing although the feeling is mostly positive there are always negatives.
The bushes appear to have an issue with squeeking and have seen quite a few threads of possible cures mostly related to holding lube or allowing access to relube.
Suggest anyone wanting to fit learn from this and possibly look into what to do if they squeak before fitting.
