Cushion Buffer for Xdrive?

Hey guys. This may seem like a crazy idea but has anyone seen or heard of this product? It looks low cost for those without height adjustable coilovers. I think the soft urethane would not change the ride height much at all but would possibly improve comfort. Maybe a stiffer version could increase height for winter. It appears it could have multiple uses for the front of our dropped xdrives like...
-decrease front suspension crash on rough roads
-Easy seasonal install to get increased ride height for snowy weather conditions (maybe different stiffness options for more or less lift)

Is it safe?


Nascar uses these (solid Ones)


Some lifted trucks use harder soli material versions of this.

Thoughts and or experience?

Yes, more info on this would be great. I'm
On H&R springs and my car can absorb bumps pretty well, but sometimes I'll hit a bump on a highway or something and it's really jarring.
