Default Powerflex Spring Plate Bushings Torsion Bar Delete

I will be removing my torsion bars and installing coilovers. As for spring plate bushings, the popular options are the delrin or polybronze bushings. However, I would like to avoid the potential noise from delrin bushings or having to regularly grease polybronze bushings. Has anyone tried the Powerflex poly spring plate bushings? The black race version is 95 on the durometer scale which is stiff but not as hard as delrin, but not sure how much of a difference that will make. What are your opinions?

Poly does require greasing and once the grease has washed off they will squeak. The ER are the best option by far and they don’t generate much if any nvh at the spring plate.
