Yeah that poly one actually looks like it will work, they do have that 30 mm listing and the shape is right. Price will probably be comparable, I think the OEM's were ~$7 each. I guess I hadn't really thought about going w/ poly for any reason other than I couldn't find replacements, it was mentioned earlier that the poly ones need to be lubed? I do keep on my maintenance but why add extra things unnecessarily. I understand that they are stiffer and lend to better handling, but she's a 4,260 pound FWD sedan and I don't road race so I think the added maintenance factor along w/ a basically moot performance point is kind of making me lean towards just getting the OEM replacements. That being my thoughts on it, what do you guys think?

I would go with the poly. regardless of having to grease them.

but you have to factor the bolt spacing, not just the diameter of the bar.
