How is it going? What is the overall outcome you want going with these. I think 80 SHa is too hard for an everyday ride. I would not go higher than 60 SHa. The harder the rubber the stiffer the ride is unless it is for a race car where you would need it. I have not had these in my car but Polyurethane does have its advantages especially if you can manufacture it yourself. If you choose to go with them let me know how they feel in this application.
