We'll I just got back from a 100 mile drive with Mike Mueller's roller bearings freshly installed and I can't say enough good things about them. My suspension set up before was this: I have fresh Koni yellows all around with coil-overs and 21mm torsion bars and Smart Racing adjustable front sway. Those are nice pieces to have. I also had the factory rubber bushings that were not worn all around. Before, driving around wasn't bearable for long distances because all bumps in the road, expansion joints, uneven pavement etc would rattle the car and vibrate it and transmit much of that through to my seat and over time this became really uncomfortable. Also, in corners or changing lanes on bumpy surfaces my car felt like the kind of hopped around. And all the bumps and road imperfections would create a lot of noise in the car. My targa top would never stop squeaking either. So, in short it was rather exhausting to drive the car any length of time because of all the noise and vibration etc. Now, with the roller bearings it's unbelievable. It's quiet for one thing, my targa top doesn't squeak anymore. I don't feel bumps. Railway tracks, expansion joints, various road imperfections, uneven pavement nothing seems to be a problem. They're quite simply gone. The car is solid as a rock where before it was chaos. I can drive forever just listening to the engine. I would drive over stuff that I KNOW would be unbearable with rubber bushings but now, serenity. This is such a fantastic upgrade to the suspension and It's so hard to imagine unless you actually experience it. It's like night and day. The price of entry is nothing compared to the comfort and confidence inspiring changes in suspension that allows you to attack corners without fear of being bounced or rattled off course. It's empowering. My hat is off to Mike Mueller and his super fantastic product. They are worth every penny and more.
