We’ve selected the material that offers the best balance of performance and comfort for your vehicle’s needs.
Our Comfort grade bushes are designed to enhance ride quality and minimise road noise, making them ideal for everyday driving. They are softer, providing maximum suspension articulation and a cushioned feel that absorbs bumps and vibrations effectively. This softer composition ensures a smoother, quieter driving experience, especially in Classic cars or Land Rovers. Comfort bushes maintain a balance between originality and ease of driving, catering to those who value a relaxed Factory-Fresh drive.
The Dynamic grade bushes offer a middle ground between Comfort and Performance. They are slightly firmer than the Comfort bushes, which improves handling and cornering response without sacrificing too much ride comfort. These bushes are ideal for drivers who enjoy a more engaging driving experience while still needing a level of comfort for daily use, whilst also being suitable for spirited driving & light track use.
Performance grade bushes are the stiffest of the three, designed for enthusiasts who demand the utmost in handling and control. They offer minimal deflection, enhancing vehicle response and stability during aggressive driving. These bushes are perfect for high-performance or track vehicles where precision and handling are critical. While they might sacrifice some ride comfort, they deliver superior driving dynamics and control, ideal for those who push their vehicle to its limits – Including Towing!
These rods are produced in 90 Shore A which allows them to be machined on a lathe.

Specifications
The Audi A1 Quattro (8X1, 8XF) built from 2012 to 2018 was a rare, focused hot hatch, and owners who want to keep it feeling as sharp as intended usually reach a point where the original suspension bushes need attention. Hard driving and age take their toll, and softened rubber blunts the precise turn-in this car was designed around.
On a quattro-driven A1 the front lower arm bushes carry a lot of load, and as they deteriorate you get imprecise steering, a knock over rough surfaces and inconsistent tracking. Anti-roll bar bushes wear alongside them, letting body roll creep in and dulling the response mid-corner. These small changes rob the car of the alertness that defined it.
Fitting our polyurethane bushes to the A1 Quattro tightens the front end and restores that keen, connected feel, while standing up to heat and road contamination far longer than rubber. It is a worthwhile upgrade for spirited road or track use. See the standard Audi A1 bush range, the full Audi selection, or the related VW Polo Mk5 bushes.
