Ive been running the full set on the vRS for a while now.  Great mounts.  Much stiffer than oem, but with no extra vibration through the cabin.  Also stopped wheel hop and helped traction no end.  Well worth buying.  Great price too.

I always try to keep them in stock too.

I'm on 'VWR' mounts.... Feel the vibes, man!  :laugh:

Interesting that THS have successfully reduced any vibrations, though it has to said that mine are fairly minimal to my insensitive arse.

from my perspective, I know the VWR / BSH mounts are the tightest solution, however if you plan to sell the car then maybe not!
My biggest question would be around the longevity of the THS version as its still rubber (albeit stiffer) and to my mind will still 'age' and get slack over time.
How many miles have you done Alex ?

I must have covered 3000 miles now.  I had one mount off last week to do my cambelt and it was still perfect.  The subframe mount is fully rubber, but its also a better quaility rubber on the mounts too.

Both my old standard upper mounts had substantial cracks and splits in them.  They had only covered 60,000 miles too.
