Default E60 XI Front Thrust Arm Bushing Options
Hello guys I was recently searching the net for parts and I found that the XI guys now have a Powerflex Urethane Front Thrust Arm option which is great because I hate the stock bushing.I am not sure if I am late but anyway here is the link if you guys are interested:

Have you tried these? I'm in the market for new bushings.

I believe Turner also makes a set, albeit double the price of these.

Just following up. I installed the poly bushings with no issues whatsoever. Car stops beautifully with no slop whatsoever.
