I sent mike some pictures of my rear bushings and he said they look correct... Mine look like the bigger ones in your picture and they appear darker in color correct? I thought they looked too big because the squish out quite a bit when you tighten the bolts down. What year is your car that these smaller ones fit? I have a 2003. Mike said the bigger ones in your picture which are the same ones I showed him in my pictures looked right...

My car is a 2001. If the Install looks like my first pic, where there was over a half inch sticking out of the bracket, they are not correct. The new bushings fit perfectly, and it handles better than when I smooshed the big bushing into place.

I agree as well. We are working through the issues the best we can at this point given the test data and feedback we are getting. Thanks guys.
