yeah solid mount to remove passive rear steering to change the handling characteristics in a very specific way, not to cope with upgrade torsion bars or lowering or fast road or whatever
i had no issue with solid top front mounts on my coilovers, in fact the rest of the suspension took care of it right? just attaches it to the car. same as rear mounts, only reason they are flexible is for passive rear steer, side to side movement, so will be the only thing you affect.
you generally go poly bushed on bushes that wear and give you movement in an undesirable direction.
Trying to work through the logic, all you're going to end up with is slightly less passive rear steering by an undefined amount which you haven't defined as being a problem for you
i'll leave it at that, as bannatyne would say 'i'm oot'
