What Do The Different Grades Mean?

When There’s No Option Available:

We’ve selected the material that offers the best balance of performance and comfort for your vehicle’s needs.

Comfort (Blue 65A):

Our Comfort grade bushes are designed to enhance ride quality and minimise road noise, making them ideal for everyday driving. They are softer, providing maximum suspension articulation and a cushioned feel that absorbs bumps and vibrations effectively. This softer composition ensures a smoother, quieter driving experience, especially in Classic cars or Land Rovers. Comfort bushes maintain a balance between originality and ease of driving, catering to those who value a relaxed Factory-Fresh drive.

Dynamic (Orange 75A):

The Dynamic grade bushes offer a middle ground between Comfort and Performance. They are slightly firmer than the Comfort bushes, which improves handling and cornering response without sacrificing too much ride comfort. These bushes are ideal for drivers who enjoy a more engaging driving experience while still needing a level of comfort for daily use, whilst also being suitable for spirited driving & light track use.

Performance (RED 85A):

Performance grade bushes are the stiffest of the three, designed for enthusiasts who demand the utmost in handling and control. They offer minimal deflection, enhancing vehicle response and stability during aggressive driving. These bushes are perfect for high-performance or track vehicles where precision and handling are critical. While they might sacrifice some ride comfort, they deliver superior driving dynamics and control, ideal for those who push their vehicle to its limits – Including Towing!

Machinable Material:

These rods are produced in 90 Shore A which allows them to be machined on a lathe.

Specifications

The second-generation Audi R8 Spyder (4S9, 4SR) from 2016 onwards pairs the drop-top body with the sharper 4S chassis, and it rewards a driver who keeps the suspension in top order. Precise double-wishbone bushes are what let this open supercar feel every bit as planted as the coupe when the roads open up.

The wishbone bushes at each corner control camber and toe under load, and any softening allows the geometry to shift, which dulls the crisp turn-in the car is capable of and can lead to uneven tyre wear. In a convertible, where body stiffness is slightly lower, sharp bushes matter all the more for a connected feel.

Our polyurethane bushes for the R8 4S Spyder tighten the geometry and lift feedback, standing up to heat and repeated hard use far better than the standard rubber. They are well suited to keen road driving and track days alike. Compare the coupe R8 4S range, the earlier R8 427 Spyder bushes, or the wider Audi selection.
