i think powerflex will get the nod 99% of the time

i personally got some cheapo versions cos picked up a whole car set of flo-flex items for 30quid lol

but as for the best quality available, powerflex is the way to go

Yes powerflex seem to be the only choice when buying these, ive got the front ARB bushes from burton power, they are purple and around £15 each.

just bought the shock top mounts, lower arm bushes, and anti-roll bar bushes all powerflex. Have used deflex/flo-flex before and thought they were rubbish imo
