pointless unless your bushes are knackered.
had them on mine, then went back to new standard ones. I changed because my bushes were knackered but I had a few probs with the poly ones after a few thousand miles they kept creaking no matter how often I greased them up. also had a lot more road noiseand was harsh over certain road serfaces.

When you say you had to grease them i get the impression you have got them confused with solid type nylon bushes which do make a lot of noises!
I havent known them to make any noises before

They were greased with copperslip to aid assembly (as it said in the instructions) but they were very creaky. kept having to spray wd40 on them until one day I found some front tie bar brackets inc bushes in the bargain bin in vaux. changed for them and the problem dissapeared. Maybe I had a dodgy batch
