Re: Poly vs Rubber

[Wakeman Massie <wakey@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Poly handles better, it does.  But it is louder, more expensive, and harsher 
riding.  If you are under 40, drive agressively, don't have back problems, 
and/or don't mind a few "squawks", do it.

Rubber is cheaper, quieter, and smoother - you'll notice a difference on 
potholes and such.  If you mostly cruise, stick with the factory stuff for 
sure.

My advice.  Probably not worth much, but FWIW I have installed
