The only thing I don't like about polyurethane is they wear out quicker than OEM rubber bushings. The problem with poly is that you have to keep putting grease in them, or just the smallest amount of dirt starts to work at it like sandpaper. The poly bushings I installed in my 00 Civic Si in 2002 wore out in 3 years.
My poly shifter bushing I have in my 93 Civic Si I installed in 2006 has alot of play again only after 3 years.
