Default Motor Mounts? Which ones?

I'm in need of new mounts for my car. It's an 06 with 78XXX miles on it. The motor is completely stock and the car is lowered on Eibach Pro kit.

Which mounts should I get? OEM? or Megan?

I don't want the car to vibrate crazy with the top and windows up.

Anyone here has experience with Megan? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

I have the megan's and they do vibrate at idle.. If your car is stock I'm not sure you'll like it

Imo they are not as bad as the innovative 70a I've seen in other people's cars

I've heard the Innovative mounts are very rough?

i've read on here that motor mounts are one of the worst mods you can do unless you can tolerate the vibrations. if you're looking for a little less movement in the engine bay, look for an ingalls stiffy torque dampener - that's on my list for next couple mods.

My mounts are completely gone. So I have to get new ones in a day or two.

Innovative mounts are unbearable. They make the car vibrate as if the engine is falling apart. Megans are much better, but still vibrate a small amount.

Get OEM mounts. Then get an Ingalls ETD and triple their life.
