Which bushings? The Energy Suspension complete bushing kit, is far from complete. If you have an S5 I would recommend buying them seperately. The complete kit contains end-link bushings that you can not use on an S5.

DTSS Elimination bushings are made by several companies. (not Energy)

There are 2 spherical bearing in the rear hubs that are expensive. They can be swapped with delrin ones if you eliminate the DTSS.

If you are planning on changing the bushings yourself I would recommend a shop press (12 ton or bigger). I would also suggest that as you need to drop the rear subframe to change the rear control arm toe bushings, that you also take the time to prep and paint/coat your subframe and related parts.
