The SPL solids are on the compression rods. When you lower the car you will continuously tear through the compression rod bushings. The stock rubber ones give to the point that they eventually tear. The urethane bushings are more "durable" I guess you could say, but they aren't designed for handling the extra load that they are given due to angles from lowering the car. The SPL solid bushings utilize the spherical cone ends that allow them to move around and "adjust", if you will, to the angles you create by lowering your car.
It's been awhile since I've discussed any of these parts or even thought about them, so this is all from my horrible memory bank. It's what is making sense to me right now so I'm going to go with it and tell you that I am confident that it's factual information. LOL
