they are not exactly solid, usely they come in three flavours :)
THESE (http://www.strongflex.eu/en/323-volkswagen-polo-i-ii-75-94) guys arent expensive and read good reviews about them.
GOOD COMPARISON (http://www.strongflex.eu/en/content/6-red-or-yellow) between the 3 types they make.

those are poly bushes, not rose joints.  A rose joint is a metal spherical bearing.

poly bushes do as you say, they are just stiffer then the standard bushes.
