Under hard cornering and braking, that compliance translates to geometry movement -- the suspension does something different from what the alignment spec says it should. The Tomioka Racing Lower Control Arm Bushing replaces the factory pieces with hardened rubber bushings that tighten up the front end response without introducing the harshness of polyurethane.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHardened Rubber vs Polyurethane\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePolyurethane bushings deliver the tightest geometry retention but require regular greasing and introduce noise, vibration, and harshness that can become fatiguing on daily-driven cars. Tomioka Racing's hardened rubber design occupies the practical middle ground -- significantly stiffer than the factory soft rubber, direct bolt-in replacement with no greasing required, and quiet enough for daily use. For most street-plus-track builds, hardened rubber is the correct choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFitment Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFits 1998-2013 Subaru Forester\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFits 2005-2012 Subaru Legacy\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFits 2004-2021 Subaru STI\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFits 2002-2021 Subaru WRX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"clear:both;\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStraight From Subispeed\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA worthwhile upgrade for any lowered or performance-oriented Subaru.
