I like them alot. Granted the AGR urethane bushings are pretty hard, these lock the rack housing to the crossmember via male and female chamfers on the mating surfaces. You do get more road feel, but to my surprise, I don't feel more vibrations through the steering wheel. When a front tire loads and unloads, you can feel it in the wheel and allows you to understand what the car is doing. For the price, I consider it a good upgrade. Combine that with the KRC power steering pump, you've got a steering feel that is absolutely wonderful.
There are downsides. If you hit a pothole large enough to ruin a wheel, there is a greater chance the rack will be hurt as well. Considering the scrub on these cars is pretty low, I don't worry about it.
