09-15 Cadillac CTS-V Polyurethane Rear Subframe Bushings
Creative Steel’s polyurethane rear subframe bushings for the 09-15 Cadillac CTS-V are a direct replacement for the OEM rubber bushings. The OEM bushings are very soft which make them ideal for isolating noise and vibrations; however, it comes at a cost of reduced vehicle handling. The OEM subframe bushings allow the rear subframe to move effortlessly causing less then ideal handling due to suspension alignment changing while under load. Our polyurethane rear subframe bushings not only hold the rear subframe in place, they do it with minimal increase in vibration and noise. Most customers will not notice any difference in vibration or noise with our street (black) bushings.
Hardness choice will depend on how you would like the bushings to behave. If the vehicle is a daily driver/weekend fun car, we suggest purchasing the black (daily driver/street) bushing set. Our black polyurethane subframe bushings will feel close to the OEM Cadillac bushings from a comfort standpoint, while holding the subframe in place. Black daily driver bushings are a 75A durometer. If your goal for the vehicle is mostly racing, we suggest purchasing our red (race) bushing set. The red race bushings are very hard and will offer very little give. The red polyurethane bushings are a 95A durometer, additionally, if you choose to go with the red race bushings, you may experience an increase in NVH (noise, vibration, harshness).
We do offer solid aluminum subframe bushings for the full race customers. Here is a link to those – 09-15 Cadillac CTS-V Billet Aluminum Subframe Bushings

Great product, reduces flex and increase response, minimal increase in nhv. much easier to install than expected, as with the rear end bushing use a touch to get the old ones out.
