Poly feel be harder, it’s not necessarily what you want.
A lot of people change the arms as they tend to be  to remove (so cost-efficiency is the driver). If you’re DIY it might be different but be prepared to saw.

RR Sport arms are meant to be the kiddy, genuine of course.
Some inetresting pics of snapped front lower arms due to poly bushs if you search, there are some better blue ones that are meant to be good, expensive though.

I do believe the meyle HD arms advanced factors produce are the top of the line at the minute. I’ve just rebushed a set of genuine arms with the meyle bushes. Not a bad job if your handy and have a 20t press laying around lol.
I’ve heard of rear upper arms breaking off at the bush sleeve but not fronts. That’s a worrying thought if they did because those arms are immensely strong ! Jarrod
