I've never had any problems with the originals. Why are you looking to uprate?

I wouldn't have said there would be any benefit?

By the time the shock has compressed this putting tension on the other side, the resistance provided by the shock will be greater than that of rubber, thus eliminating any benefit you would make?

yeah will just have to OE it.

they do wear though, and then just knock...so uprated to avoid this happening would be good. they do them for the 106!!
