Yours are the 85? I kinda don't believe it. My car shakes so much I can barely see my garmin screen on my modifry dash mount because it shakes so much. When the car is idling at the track and I'm checking my tire pressures, you can SEE the car vibrating on the tires.

I've had multiple people laugh and tell me it feels like a massage chair, which I agree with lol.

This is at idle or between 1-2k rpm and the vibrations fall off after that.

That's what ordered but I didn't exactly check once I pulled them out of the box. Mine are black with with a textured finish. Can I verifiy the firmness by looking at the mounts (are they written on them somewhere)?

Ok I just checked a site online for the bushing colors...mine are either black or grey but I don't remember exactly. I will check when I go outside after work. If I had to guess, I'd say they were grey. Which makes sense since the seller told me they were out of stock on the 75A's. They're definitely not red lol

I'm surprised at how tame your experiences sound. Glad you're enjoying them though. My mirrors and front bumper rattles. I also get a crazy buzzing at around 90mph. There's also a lot more new noises that the car makes, but not entirely sure if they're attributed to the stiffer mounts. I've had to replace my driver side window regulator as well at around 40k miles.

Anyone have any experiences with the 60s or the 75s? I dunno if the whole shaking thing is what im looking for, ive been hunting down rattles and shakes here and there for months just from beating on it lol finally getting myself squared away.
