Time for some new bushings ...

It's time for some new sway bar bushings, the question is, should I just get stock ones? I have a 2000 SE, and would like to get something close to stock, perhaps a little stiffer is fine, but nothing extreme. It's a family mobile, so need to keep them all happy. Going crazy with all that's available, what's something durable and rather comfortable. Thanks all!

I guess either rubber (stock) or Energy Suspension, polyurethane ... will it beat my family up too much?

As a matter of fact, I got the Moog end links, and the Moog bushings, but had to buy the ES ones as well. lol Now I need to decide which to use once they all come in. And return the other set. I'm thinking of Moog end links and ES bushings.
