Prothane suspension bushings

are they better then energy suspension bushings? a friend of mine got them and they do appear to be stiffer... any good or bad comments on them?

and anyone know a place that sells them?

I think there was a thread about this a few weeks back, might want to use the search feature and have a look.

From what I remember, the Black ES bushings are the best ones out there compared to there red bushings, aswell as Prothane.

I've sold tonnes of both brands, and no complaints at all about either.

I have no preference. My cousin generally prefers to sell Prothane, but I'm not sure why.
