Default Body bushings

Not sure if this goes here or not. How harsh are the poly bushings as compared to rubber bushings for the body. I will have poly bushings for the suspension parts but was thinking of going back with the rubber. I know that they don't last as long as poly but I am just after opinions on the ride.

If you have subframe connectors, I would go to solid bushings. It should not feel any different than a unibody car. The poly should give a slightly firmer feel than the rubber and solid should do the same versus poly.
