Front Strut Top Mounts

[andyjstone 6]

I have seen some people say they have Group N top mount rubbers and BBM top mount bearings and as I've just finished re-building my struts with Bilstein challenge spec dampers and Eibach lowering springs, is it worth fittings these as well, do they really make a difference?

BBM only do the group N top mount rubbers not the bearings afaik.

 

I've got group N rubbers on my track car (PTS ones) & with uprated shocks they make no difference to the ride quality imo but sharpen the turn in marginally.

 

If you reused your original oe rubbers I'd expect they will be very soft by now so you would probably notice quite a difference. OE rubbers can be squahsed in your hands to make each side touch but the group N ones hardly move.
