I'm shopping for front-end rebuild kits, and I've been given the opportunity to either go with polygraphite or stock rubber.

I've heard that the polygraphite parts can be known to squeak a bit. Is that true? Is it anoying? Right now the only reason to go with stock is that it's about $30 cheaper. Since the polygraphite parts don't deflect (from what I've heard) then are they the better route? Anyone have experience?
