Default Anyone tried this before?

Was browsing around for something that will prolong the life of the car's absorbers and came across this. Anyone has experience with using this before? Urethan Buffer.

these seem kinda... gimmicky. they are stiffening one coil of the spring resulting in un-even spring rates. and it looks like it will raise the car, resulting in poorer handling.

from a TTC rep: "정문수 You can feel higher body 1-1.5 inch after installation of cushion buffer. Buffer will make less vibration as well."

The Nascar guys use this type of thing. I grew up in the 60s and we used them 50 years ago. Made for a rough ride back then.
