Suspension set up?

I've got standard cup suspension with Eibach lowered springs. I've just got new genuine front shocks to fit, rears aren't that old. I've also got a full set of Powerflex ploy bushes and a pair Ktec solid top mounts to put on. It will occasionally visit the track so has anyone got the same set up? Will it still be comfortable on the road and ok on track, or am I better off with standard mounts and bushes?

I'm interested to know thoughts too. I've got a 172 I'm track prepping, and was thinking of cup shocks and cool sports.
Bushes though, I wasn't sure.

I'm still yet to see a standard wishbone bush that's worn out tbh, but I've seen plenty of poly bushed wishbones causing agg. In all fairness though, that was the older style powerflex bushes that required tack welds on the sleeves.

I've just fitted solid mounts, bushes and coilovers, it's not the best on the road,
I'd put solid mounts and stick with standard shocks
 
I've fitted Gaz coilovers this week but got new standard top mounts and left the bushes alone. Wouldn't say it's too hard from initial impressions, have the rear damping set to the softest at the moment.
