Default which motor mounts to get?

I need to get new motor mounts for my 01 ws6. I was going to go with prothane ones, until i heard that there's alot of vibration along with those. I only have 342hp, so I dont need solids or anything crazy. What will feel like stock mounts? What should I get without spending $130 a side?

Do something really novel, and get stock mounts for a stock feel.

i have prothane inserts and didn't notice any excessive vibration... i also have the trans mount and it's an m6 car if that matters... but if you don't want those or solids, then stock ones sound like your only other option

Get the Prothanes, there's a little added vibration at idle but other than that you'll never notice it.

I'd do Prothane motor/trans mounts together. I got the trans mount. I wish I had the motor mounts, but I'm fearing the install work! haha
