What's the best setup for a street car?

Tarret bronze/urethane? (Sounds like a good idea, but never heard from anyone running them)

Needle Bearings? ( I worry about rust and maintenance issues)

Stock with 40K on them? (Has a low "trick" factor, but probably works good)

Delrin/urethane (squeeky........don't want them)

Ditto for rear trailing arm bushings????
