    absolutely not

    if you are going to daily drive your e30, do NOT put them in. The ride quality on the highway and other faster roads isn't so bad, but it's the in-town, pot hole obstacle course which can be very jarring. A mechanic also explained that it's not to good for the driveline because there is a lack of forgiveness in the rear end which gets transmitted to the driveline, and hurts the clutch feel. He also said it's more stress on the rear diff for the same reasons.

    I put in poly bushings years ago.. my car is still comfy enough :p

    my car will be my daily driver for quite some time.. I wouldn't really want to drive something else. after all, why put all that work into a car so you can drive a beater to "save" your nice car?

    I love driving my truck everyday because my company pays the payment and all the diesel I can burn.
