Do not know about comparison because I went for a complete set of VFT bushes when I had to completely recon the 32's struts and it seemed stupid not to use the "Best" when I had just spent $6000 on parts and labour, so another $1800 for bushes inc 4WS (did not need changing)seemed like a bargain. However those on here who are experienced and know - SAY THIS -"VFT bushes are the "Best" AND those who "Really Push" their cars like me SAY "they can really tell the difference" But if your casual city cruiser you'd never know unless you do several hundred thousand Km's and realise that they haven't been changed for a while. Vlamos used better compounds and fit better. Talk to Andrew Vlamos he is very approachable

I recently replaced my lower control arm bushes with genuine toyota bushes. Very happy with the ride. Mechanic was quite impressed with the quality of the large bushes. I'm not sure what they retail for, I got mine off Muz some time ago. I would have bought Vlamos bushes had i not got mine cheaply.
