What is the main benefit of using pillowball upper mounts?

Pillowball upper mounts replace the stock rubber mounts with a spherical bearing. This reduces flex and deflection, leading to a more direct steering feel and improved suspension response.

Will these mounts affect ride comfort?

Yes, pillowball mounts typically transmit more road noise and vibration into the cabin compared to stock rubber mounts. This is a trade-off for improved handling and steering feedback.

Do these mounts come with all necessary hardware for installation?

The manufacturer's documentation should specify what hardware is included. It's recommended to refer to the installation instructions for a complete list of required parts and tools.

Product Details

If you're looking to get the most out of your 2017+ Honda Civic Type R (FK8/FL5) suspension, these front pillowball upper mounts from RS-R are a solid option. They replace the stock rubber mounts, offering a more direct connection between your coilovers or struts and the chassis. This change is key for improving steering feel and handling precision, especially when you're pushing the car hard.

These mounts are built with pillowball bearings, which allow for smoother articulation of the suspension components. This means less binding and more consistent suspension geometry under load, which can make a noticeable difference in how the car responds to steering inputs. The well-built construction ensures they can handle the stresses of spirited driving and track use, providing a more solid feel to the front end of your Type R.

When installing these, you'll want to ensure your suspension is properly aligned afterward to take full advantage of the improved geometry control. They are designed to work with many coilover systems and factory-style struts, but it's always a good idea to check compatibility with your specific setup.
