Before i fit,

No harm giving a generous coatin in htb grease? i know the factory ones don't do that, but they are obviously rubber.

are they really as noisy as people say? I neva heard any sound from em on other cars... but their bushes haven't been this big as these ones.

got a set in the outers of the wagon and you only hear them squeak when driving slow, under 25km's hr. But I do have an extra 150kg out back.
