Default Pillow Mount vs Rubber Mount

Hi,

Can you guys share your opinions and experiences with pillow mounts vs rubber mounts. I am about to buy some coilovers, but want to weigh out the pros and cons.

Thanks

There is no reason to go pillow ball on a double wishbone or multilink suspension. There is not enought misalignment to notice and since its not MacPherson strut based there are no significant benefits, camber adj etc.

Just stick with rubber.
