While I used to prefer rubber since very most poly bushes add some harshness
Superpro's bushes actually do ride smoothly. Anyway, there's no offset bushes
available made from rubber. I just wanted to point a proper alternative.
However, which steering effort one prefers is a matter of taste and what one's
used to. Since my Clubsport's steering suspectedly is heavier compared to the
Golf TSI's steering anyway I prefer the standard setting over 'sport'. Probably
my PSS tires contribute to both steering feel and effort, particularly compared
to generously grooved all-seasons.
Trying several VCDS settings on several cars and trying lots of more serious
suspension mods I'm disillusioned. If you want some serious improvements you
have to perform some serious mods to the hardware. Begin with tires first. And
caster is a highly effective way to alter steering.
My point being, just don't expect too much from playing with VCDS.
